Letters to the Editor

I have sent this letter to the Oak Bluffs selectmen and town administrator.

We have been longtime residents of West Tisbury, and the air traffic in the summer of 2010 seems quite a bit more than in past years.

The Vineyard Nursing Association hosted its 11th annual Clambake on Wednesday, July 27, at the Field Gallery in West Tisbury.

A couple of weeks ago, while visiting Lambert's Cove Beach for the first time with her two friendly golden retrievers, one of my friend's dogs was badly bitten by a dog that has been known to be unreliable.

Just over six months ago Haiti suffered a devastating earthquake.

It is finally done.

Regarding the 30th anniversary of the Gannon and Benjamin Marine Railway, I must say, if it weren't for Nat and Ross, I probably would not have stayed here after my first visit to Martha's Vineyard on a yacht in 1984.

I'm so sad to learn that Vineyard Photo is closing.

When the Field Club in Katama sought approval from the Martha's Vineyard Commission, the owners offered up many conditions in addition to those set by the commission in their final decision to approve the project.

The first oil field was discovered at Prudhoe Bay on March 12, 1968, by Atlantic Richfield Company (ARCO) and Exxon.

Another bench has disappeared from the bus route to and from Vineyard Haven.

To the person who picked up the wrong photos from Mosher's over the weekend, or Monday, could you please return them as soon as possible.

I offer heartfelt condolences to all those affected by the recent tragic cycling accident in Vineyard Haven.

Thank you to the town of Chilmark Highway Department for the beautiful work they have been doing clearing the North Road.

Like many other people, I was shocked by the death of Dina Decceca.

The fire on July 12, which rapidly engulfed the historic Coast Guard boathouse in Menemsha Harbor, was disastrous.

To the Editor:It is with sadness that we are all were made aware of the bike accident that claim the life of a young mother in Vineyard Haven.

Thank you to everyone who helped put out the boat house fire on July 12.

It is time everyone took a good look at the picturesque town of West Tisbury with its farmlands, lush greenery, flowers for sale, homemade road signs and unique businesses — quaint little town with many distractions to the eye, beautiful flowers growing in our greenhouses, chairs hanging from trees, balloons pointing the way to a summer BBQ, freshly baked pies for the taking, and flags outside of businesses.

To the Editor:Given the traffic and accidents on Martha's Vineyard due to increased traffic in the summer, I do not understand why traffic lights are not installed.
