Kids could see hundreds of eggs ahead of them! —Dena Porter

As the Island returns to spring, Vineyard children darted across the West Tisbury Public Library lawn in search of sweets enclosed in plastic eggs. 

Ahead of Easter, the library held its annual egg hunt on Saturday, one of several that take place in late March and early April. It was free and open to the public and finished as quickly as it started.

While the weather hasn’t fully warmed up yet, the Island has seen several signs of spring beyond the egg hunt, from the first cries of the pinkletinks to the opening of Dairy Queen.
