Good afternoon, everyone!
Sorry for the delay in my presenting you
these series of photographs (I feel like I'm
always apologizing to you guys... Sorry!)
It's been a tough couple of weeks for me, and
I really didn't have the heart to do anything, honestly.
But! that's all in the past; I'm feeling much better now,
and am even going to New Hampshire overnight on
Saturday to attend a wedding, so all is looking up!
And although I won't be staying in any charming
New England inns, I'll nevertheless have some nice
photographs of the area to show you all :)
Speaking of nice photographs...
allow me to continue on Martha's Vineyard!
♥Day Three♥

note: this was the one day I forgot to
take photos of my breakfast!)
