Day Off

Sunday was my first day off. I woke up around 8 showered in the Farm House and then made myself some breakfast, Bob's Red Mill Oatmeal of course! I spent around 4 hours in the Farm House hanging out and chatting with other workers. Then at around 11 I went for a bike ride to the Stop and Shop, a mid-size grocery store on the Island. The bike ride to the shop was extremely easy, throughout Martha's Vineyard there are great bike paths that make getting around painless. In the store I got some pasta, to cook with farm veggies, some rice, some salt, oil and a few other essential cooking items. Then I loaded up my green messenger bag and headed back to the farm. While I was unloading my stuff into the two stuffed refrigerators in the kitchen, some of the other workers invited me to go to the beach. So at around 1:30 or so I headed over to Vineyard haven and to surprise the beach was Kelsey's backyard! After a twenty minute drive we arrived at Kelsey's families gorgeous house and from the house we walked down a narrow path covered with poison ivy! yipee! After a ten minute walk we arrived at a beautiful private beach with no one in sight. I soaked up the sun and began reading book #1 "Open Veins of Latin America." It was a beautiful day and I couldn't have been happier enjoying the beautiful ocean breeze and sunshine. After around 2 hours of sunbathing Kelsey's father called her sister, who was on the beach with us, and invited us to go on his sailboat. So off we went into the beautiful ocean and sailed around!
Not a bad day off!

Love you all!
