The island of Martha’s Vineyard has had a turbulent and tragic modern history, from Chappaquiddick to JFK Jr. But the origins of this playground to the rich and famous date all the way back to the early colonial era.
According to an unofficial history of the island from the Vineyard Gazette, Martha’s Vineyard was named in 1602 by an English explorer named Bartholomew Gosnold. He founded a nearby colonial settlement just across the Vineyard Sound on the island of Cuttyhunk.
So why did Gosnold go with “Martha’s Vineyard”? Well, aside from knowing “Bartholomew’s Vineyard” wasn’t as catchy, it was probably because he had an infant daughter named Martha, and the island was covered with wild grapes at the time.
The Martha’s Vineyard Historical Society notes that Gosnold also had a mother-in-law named Martha, who helped finance Gosnold’s expeditions. So perhaps some family diplomacy came into play.

KEEP, DONATE or THROW AWAY.
Garages come in many shapes and sizes, but most have one thing in common: clutter. Faced with a mountain of old sports equipment, broken lawnmowers, and little-used tools, some home owners have a hard time finding room in the garage for their car. But when it comes time to sell a house, disorganization in this all-important area is a turnoff to potential buyers, who’ll be unable to imagine their own stuff in the space.
1. EMPTY THE GARAGE.
Haul contents (Items not used in years ? or if ever) to the driveway, sort into three catagories; Keep, Donate and Throw Away, Important questions to ask yourself; a) When was the last time you used it, if ever, b) What is the worst thing that would happen if you got rid of it??
2. USE WHAT YOU ALREADY HAVE.
Before you decide to buy new organizing systems for the garage, look around the house and ask yourself if you have any furniture that you’re no longer using or have considered replacing, that can make attractive, original and economical garage storage systems.
