Nantucket V

Nantucket V

Great evening at The Club Car in town, eel followed by sweetbreads, with a nice Puligny Montrechet. When I asked the host for a different table, not so close to the lively bar, he kindly provided a four-top at the other side of our restaurant. And who appears there as our waiter, but our former car service driver from years ago, who has since been to Bangkok and now works the summers on Nantucket! If we had taken the first table we probably wouldn’t have even seen him in the busy restaurant.

Some photos should be appearing here later today. The weather has turned much more favorable and this looks like a second, consecutive beach day. The beach was “crowded” yesterday, with about 8 people! We saw seals zooming like submarines past us toward the point. Seagulls were providing air cover, probably looking for fish remains the seals didn’t devour.

I turned the car’s lights off for a few seconds as we stopped on the serpentine stretch leading out here after dinner. I haven’t been enveloped in such total darkness (we couldn’t see the front of the car) since I was lost in the Norwegian woods when I was 17. (Yes, that’s a true story.)

I’m going to be heading for rehab once we return, since I’ve become addicted to turkey hash at breakfast.

It’s 8 am, I’m waiting for Maria to awake, writing from the terrace, morning dew requiring that I clean the computer screen. Meanwhile, I’ve finished another chapter in The Consulting Bible, posted my morning advice on Twitter, answered all my email (including a potential $20,000 referral for a keynote), and checked the latest postings on AlansForums.com. And her I am, finishing this.

    Alan, Thanks for such great pictures…depicts Nantucket so perfectly. They bring back wonderful memories of New England, Boston, Cape Cod, the Islands and you home area Providence and Newport. Nantucket one of the Gems of the world. Reminds me to plan many trips to those areas in the future. Thank You
