NEXT PROJECT:
Great Storms of Martha's Vineyard
Coming in 2026
Do you know about the Great Colonial Hurricane of 1635? 
Learn about The Portland Gale of 1898.
We all have heard of the '38 Hurricane, right?
 Both Hurricane Bob and the No Name (aka Perfect) Storm struck in 1991.

Next, we're looking at
Vineyard Vanguards
Biographies of dozens of prominent Islanders who improved life on Island.
Living or dead, male or female, year rounders or summer people,
you've heard of most of these people, but will learn more.

Vineyard Vanguards made the Vineyard what it is today.
No reason to slow down now...

Do you read Kutter's Commentary on Substack.com?
Free subscription for a daily dose of life.

And I add my thoughts the next day.

All you need to read...
