Inn At The Ridge - Bed & Breakfast
This Farmhouse was built in 1796 by one of the first settlers in the Hudson Valley-The Decker Family. Beverly and Sal purchased this house in 2006 with the thoughts to create a Bed & Breakfast for vacationers who want to get away for a few days, a week or for the full season. The seasons here are year round. The spring, the summer, the changing of the leaves and of course the October harvest as well as the Christmas Holiday season. This inviting 211 year old farmhouse has been kept as authentic as possible. The wide plank floors, old door latches and dusk to dawn window lights help make this nicely appointed home a great escape. The majestic views of the Shawangunk Mountain range can not be described. When you visit us you will see why we named our home, "Inn AT The Ridge"

BelushiPisanoGallery.com
The Belushi Pisano Gallery in downtown Vineyard Haven is Martha s Vineyard s newest art gallery. Kicked off with a preview on Dec. 15, the gallery opened its newly painted doors to observers and collectors interested in a variety of work by well-known local and national artists. Featured are a collection of paintings, mixed media, handcrafted furniture, sculpture, glass, and jewelry.

The Belushi name is a prominent one, but gallery co-owner Judith Belushi Pisano hopes that this will not conjure up an image of a strictly elite crowd, which might deter some people from coming. On the contrary, from its aesthetics to its purpose, the gallery has a warm, inviting ambiance, and it is not-for-profit.

The gallery is a new subsidiary of The Second Chance Foundation. Established by Ms. Belushi Pisano in 1991, the foundation has served the Island community since then, providing assistance to individuals with financial difficulties while also encouraging an appreciation for the arts.

Happy Valley House Talk
Robert Frost's poem about good fences making good neighbors starts with, "Something there is that doesn't love a wall." Maybe it is the same Something that doesn't love what we build and live in.

What a gorgeous structure the pictured barn must have been in its hay day, before that Something went to work. Without attentive care and knowledge, the structures we call home will eventually succumb to that devilish Something.

This site is an attempt to provide means for defeating that Something.

She uses these stems, branches and their blossoms for lines, forms and textures in imaginative bouquets arranged in a spontaneous, relaxed manner. In her arrangements, Carol supplements the flora of Flower Hill with only the freshest, loveliest flowers available from other local growers and flower markets.
