First on the island

Nantucket’s Beginnings
The island’s beginnings in western history can be traced to its reported sighting by Norsemen in the 11th century. But it was not until 1602 that Captain Bartholomew Gosnold of Falmouth, England sailed his bark Concord past the bluffs of Siasconset and really put Nantucket on the map. The island’s original inhabitants, the Wampanoag Indians, lived undisturbed until 1641 when the island was deeded by the English (the authorities in control of all land from the coast of Maine to New York) to Thomas Mayhew and his son, merchants of Watertown and Martha’s Vineyard.

Mark Mattern and Marlena Boyd take break from R&D new restaurant concept

Black and white shopping  Marlena and Mark Mark and Marlena take a break from r&d of our new restaurant concept to do what do best! Shop together. I love to pick out clothes for her. A guy that knows her likes and dislikes, what size she is in almost every fashion. A great time before flying home of eating, drinking, shopping, sharing chocolate and doing her make up on a whim. ✈️😎💵🍷👍👸 Great looking couple
