Cape Cod Buoys - Floating devices that can have many purposes. They can be anchored or allowed to drift with the sea wave. A buoy aids pilotage by marking a maritime channel, hazard and administrative area to allow boats and ships to navigate safely. Some navigational buoys are fitted with a bell or gong, which sounds when waves move the buoy.

The Secession Movement of Martha's Vineyard - A bill was introduced into the State House proposing secession from Massachusetts. Overwhelming majorities voted for secession at town meetings all across the Islands. A convocation of the All-Island Selectmen’s Association on Martha’s Vineyard voted to leave the state and (maybe) the nation. For a while, it was headline news across the nation; it is comprehensively documented in the files of the Vineyard Gazette and the morgues of other media. It is commemorated not on plaques but in memorabilia including flags, clothing, and bumper stickers. Its spirit is there every time an Islander colloquially refers to the act of taking a trip off-Island as “going to America.”

For five decades Mildred’s Chowder House was one of the most popular restaurants on Cape Cod. Its chowder is the stuff of legends and countless people still speak of it to this day with adoration. Mildred’s would become a destination for those vacationing on the Cape during the summer. It became commonplace for Mildred’s to serve 900 customers a night. A Cape Cod landmark
