This was our last full day on Nantucket for the summer. We went into town together, and the boys found some other kids to play baseball with at Children’s Beach. Afterward, we got ice cream together at the Juice Bar. From there, the boys rode their bikes out to Eli’s house and enjoyed an afternoon in the pool.

Philomena and I took a walk in town together and returned the library books we had borrowed, as well as hunted around for a visor for Mom’s friend. Mom came and picked us up and brought us home. After that, Philomena and I worked together to prune a tree away from the house, and she got to use a ladder to seal a hole as well. It was the first time Philomena got to use a saw, and she did great at it.

We ordered a pizza from Sophie T’s Pizza, and Mom met the boys at the hospital to give them a ride home the rest of the way. Tomorrow, we have a reservation for the 5:30 p.m. boat, and that means at this time tomorrow the house will be cleaned up and closed up and drained of water, and we will be on our way back to New York.
