This is the philosophy of Bryan Nelson, A-A Island Auto Rental, MV Auto Rental and Island Electric Bike Rental, all local businesses that rent everything from his new electric bicycles and Mini-Coopers, to jeeps to minivans and Full Size SUVs. In existence since before Google, A-A Island Auto Rental prides itself on how long its been around - and on the quality of its service. Nearly 20 years ago, an early version of the rental business that serves the island today opened up in Edgartown. The company has grown considerably since then. A-A Island Rentals and it’s sister brand, MV Auto Rentals now operates now owns and operates four locations, in Edgartown, Oak Bluffs, Vineyard Haven, and at the airport. Bryan generously let me take one his newly purchased e-bikes for a ride around Vineyard Haven. After exiting the shop and passing through the chaotic ‘Five Corners’ intersection in downtown Vineyard Haven, we were off. Nelson first led me along a busy street by foot, and, after getting my bearings, we speedily made our way to a steep hill that I could now climb with remarkable ease. The experience was exhilarating, as the bike gave a smooth and satisfying boost with every every stroke of the pedal. Bryan shared behind-the-scenes details on his new fleet of electric bicycles. The e-bikes have a built-in pedal assist function which helps the rider pedal uphill, and adds extra power to the rider’s pedaling. Nelson told This Week that the bikes were a hot item, and that not many other businesses had them yet. With a range of 20 miles, the e-bikes accompany a wide variety of bikers. If the battery runs out, riders need not despair: it can be pedaled exactly like a regular bicycle. Island Electric Bike & AVIVA Bike is holding a demo day for the new e-bikes on July 11th and 12th, where you can come and feel the wind in your own hair by giving these new bikes a test drive. Bryan’s business exists on the solid pillars of two core values; good service, and a friendly staff with familiar faces. Since their early days in Edgartown, it was the service that made A-A ...and cool signs for your Vineyard Home! Large Selection of Sugar Free, Vegan & Gluten Free Chocolates and Candy Island Auto Rental stand out. Hotels in and around Edgartown started using the company close to their inception. Bryan credits his success on the fact that his company was consistently clean and dropped off in a timely manner. The business also thrives on a loyal, family oriented customer base. Thirty-eight percent of the company’s business comes from repeat customers, and Nelson noted that the customers like to see “the friendly and familiar faces that work here.” Over the years, Bryan and his team have developed a way for renting day-trippers to see most of the Island’s most notable spots. Whimsically nicknamed “The Three Hour Tour,” the renter drives from Vineyard Haven to the Gay Head cliffs, and around the entire island to hit the most popular spots with enough time to catch the 6:00 ferries. A-A Island Auto Rentals is a reliable, flexible and customer friendly business that is dedicated, above all, to you; the consumer. More information about A-A Island Auto Rentals can be found online at http://www.mvautorental. com/ or by calling 508-696-5300. Electric Bikes are available for rent at $39 for a half day (2:00 PM-6:00PM) and $69 for a full day, or by the week, while car prices range from $79 to $249 a TW day 6 thisweekonmv.com July 3 - July 10, 2014 MUSIC CALENDAR Thursday July 3rd The Seafood Shanty –dj AP spinning tunes for all ages on the upper deck with the best view in Edgartown.

Shopping and a Show Trader Fred’s new Vineyard Haven location houses more than just amazing deals. Brittney Wright T hink about it: the first thing you do after picking up an item that has caught your eye in whatever store you may be shopping in, is check the price. In a dream world, the number on the tag would be even lower than our expectations, which makes you jump for joy and rush to the cash register, overjoyed at how astonishing it is that you just scored the ultimate deal. Whether you love shopping or not, one thing everyone can agree on is that there is a certain thrill in finding that ultimate deal; imagine coming across that one leftover shirt on the sale rack that’s just your size, or getting a deep discount on those shoes you’ve been wanting for forever. It feels so good you almost might want to give yourself a pat on the back. Amongst the trove of upscale boutiques and quaint, but pricey, store fronts that dominate the shopping scene of so much of this island, there does exist that ‘dream world’ for those who want to flip over that price tag and see an affordable price, instead of getting sticker shock –– the island-famous Trader Fred’s in Vineyard Haven. While Trader Fred’s has always been known for deep discounts, the new Vineyard Haven location includes a unique feature –– an adjoining art gallery which also functions as a real estate office. Whether you’re dropping in to bargain hunt or searching for some seriously impressive art, this location offers a winning combination of shopping and a show. “If you’re used to seeing a shirt at a speciality store for $45, we have it for $11,” says the one and only Trader Fred himself. And it’s true; Trader Fred’s newest location in Vineyard Haven places a bigger emphasis on clothing, and their selection includes many well-known brand names that are otherwise almost impossible to get on the island. Here you’ll find unique organic t-shirts, right next to the huge collection of footwear for both men and women, from sandals to Croc-like styles. There is an equally impressive display of sunglasses, ranging from the more stylish designs to funky colored frames. A trip to Martha’s Vineyard isn’t complete without that indispensable island souvenir; from t-shirts to stickers, Trader Fred’s has got you covered. In addition to clothing, this location carries a few beach essentials, like sunblock and beach towels. And best of all, it’s all at prices that won’t give you sticker shock. Unique to the new Vineyard Haven location is an adjoining art gallery and real estate office. “Both require professional expertise, so they were a natural match,” says Trader Fred. And indeed they are. The gallery features many talented artists, including a few locals who you may or may not already know of; Nathan Sheppard, an incredible painter, and Brandon Fisher, a talented old-world style painter, are both local islanders who are featured in the space. Richard Dunbrack, who creates salvaged art sculptures that are both eye-catching and mind-bending in their intriguing designs, and his daughter Sydney, an artist who masterfully paints and sketches incredibly intricate and detailed pieces of art, are both locals who also have pieces in the gallery. Also housed inside the gallery are the offices of Jane Brown Real Estate Associates, who have been operating on the island since 1968. This newest Vineyard Haven location is something we can’t wait to see more of; with prices that make you want to smile and seriously cool art, there isn’t any reason not to stop by. After flipping through racks and racks of brand-name clothing, at very non-brand-name clothing prices, you’ll want to give Trader Fred that pat on TW the back. The Island’s Hottest Entertainment News • Issue 213 vineyard LIVING 11 MORE INFO thisweekonmv.com Celebrate the Fourth Style! The Vineyard offers numerous 4th of July activities for people of all ages and interests. Kendra Mills, Staff Writer The Martha’s Vineyard community kicks off the an- nual Fourth of July celebrations with a parade on the main street of Edgartown. The island is swarmed during these two upcoming weeks and the very height of summer activity culminates in downtown Edgartown. The celebrations are exceptionally island-oriented. Past years have included participants from long standing island camps such as Felix Neck Wildlife Sanctuary’s Summer Camp, Sail Martha’s Vineyard, and Camp Jabberwocky. The holiday is a commemoration of national independence but possesses a decidedly intimate and comfortable quality. Of course, spectators are also given the chance to recognize military personnel from the island’s residents. Past highlights include, the historic fire engine, drawn by the strength of runners, displaying how fires were dealt with many, many years ago; gregarious congregations of island music, including an drum band that often inspires impromptu dancing on part of the spectators; real dancers, performing routines choreographed for the parade; and countless handcrafted floats carrying children with flags and candy. The parade is decidedly family-oriented, but after its culmination most everyone barbeques and finds a place to enjoy the fireworks show put on over the Edgartown Harbor. Edgartown Meat and Fish offers an excellent selection of goods for a Fourth of July picnic on the beach and several restaurants and hotels host parties. When describing the festivities of this years Fourth of July, parade director, Joe Sollitto, proudly states, and often last for over an hour. The rain date is the following day. You don’t want to miss the town’s transformation into a party with streets and beaches being generally overrun with people having a good time . TW “Ninety nine percent of the people who participate in the parade are people that either live here year round or have summer homes here. I know we have two bands that come from off island but thats about it. Everybody else is a local participant.” However, if some feel as though the intensity of the festivities are not to their liking, Murdick’s Fudge hosts an annual five mile road race to benefit Big Brothers/ Big Sisters of Martha’s Vineyard. Alternatively, one can find the Vineyard Streetball Classic 3 on 3 basketball tournament at Niantic Park in Oak Bluffs. To catch the aforementioned Edgartown festivities, plan to arrive well before five and be prepared to walk from your parking place. The fireworks begin at 8:45 The New Cool MV Logo to be Seen Wearing SLIP 77 There are plenty of well established Vineyard products and logo’s that are worn far and wide but for the locals and the passionate Vineyarder’s these logo’s have become a bit main stream. We at This Week On MV are recommending that you all go the store SLIP 77 in Oak Bluffs and Buy something with their very cool logo on it. The logo and name are connected to the 1977 attempt by the Vineyard to secede from the state of MA. As told on their website www.slip77.com, “The island proved its popularity in its rebellion, having been propositioned by no less than 5 states – Connecticut, Rhode Island, New Hampshire, Vermont and Hawaii – to join them. While the island never actually became the 51st State of the Union, to this day it remains a favorite destination for people from all over the world.” That, combined with the incredibly comfortable and stylish cloths that they carry is why we LOVE this logo.

The Martha’s Vineyard of 1939-1942 was a far cry from the balmy, tourist-centric island we see today. Co-authors Thomas Dresser, Herb Foster, and Jay Schofield have decided to pry open a window into World War Two era Vineyard by penning their first collaborative work together, Martha’s Vineyard in World War II. In the book, the authors discuss both the physical and social effects of World War II on the Island. This Week recently attended a presentation by the three authors on their book. There, the authors discussed a few of the notable topics in the new work. Among these talking points were the abandoned military structures on the island, German U-Boat involvement in Martha’s Vineyard, Army/Navy military drills. The social impact of the war on the citizens of the island was also discussed, as they experienced a world war living in the test bed of the United States military. Tom Dresser noted in the presentation that the East Coast Command set up two military bunkers on the Island, both at Gay Head. One of the bunkers has since fallen into the sea, and the other was filled with sand in the 1950’s. Herb Foster added that the remains of the signal and radio office on Peaked Hill, now known as Radar Hill, are still visible, while the site itself has been turned into a Coast Guard run rescue station. It may come as a surprise to some that in the early years of the war, there was high German submarine involvement off of the Martha’s Vineyard coast. Dresser shared that throughout the war, a total of 19 different submarines circled the island, and at one point, 15 submarines menaced the Vineyard at one time. In order to train for the invasion of Normandy, or D-Day, the military ran training drills in and around Martha’s Vineyard. Some soldiers were shipped in by amphibious vehicles and ships, while some parachuted in throughout the course of the mock invasions. The social impact of the war on Martha’s Vineyard left a changed island in its wake. The small, isolated Vineyard of the past was opened to new frontiers as servicemen streamed in from around the country, and brought new cultures and ideas with them. To ready themselves for war, the people of the Vineyard participated in readiness drills in the event of a bombing run by the Germans and rationing was practiced heavily. Jay Schofield mentioned that the war created collaboration between the citizens on the island. Specifically, the women of different towns on the island would volunteer to help other women when they needed extra hands to sew blan- kets for soldiers. Civilian spotters were set up to report any disturbance or possible U-Boat sighting. The Co-authors kindly agreed to sit down with This Week and discuss themselves and their book in an interview. TW: What do you think was your motivation behind writing this book? What made you want to tell this story? TD: To be honest, in the beginning, I wasn’t all that interested in it. It was the other two guys in the beginning. But Jay had written about it in the past, and Herb wanted to write it. That, combined with my publisher, made me want to do it. We each contributed something to the puzzle. HF: I went to the library, and I was looking under Martha’s Vineyard, and there was just nothing there about World War II! That’s what made me want to write it, I think. JS: It was the letters from my father and uncles during the war that made me want to write it. TW: In what way do you think the war changed the face of the vineyard and the lives of its citizens? TD: There was a very major impact with all of the servicemen on the island that changed the island from a very isolationist place to a more open one. Young servicemen from Kansas and the [heartland] brought an awareness to the Vineyard that other things were going on in the country. HF: It changed the Vineyard irrevocably, I think. JS: Yes, it taught that you don’t need to go to war to help out the cause. Everybody did their part, and it brought an awful lot of servicemen to the Vineyard after the war. They told their story and popularized the Vineyard in the country. TW: What do you think was the hardest part of writing this book? TD: There was so much information, it was hard to zero in and limit ourselves. We had to cut probably five thousand words off of our manuscript. JS: Hardest part about the book was scaling back on the information received. The flood of publicity we received after we started to tour contributed to the information we had. HF: It was a different America back then. All of the information was hard to handle. We’re even talking about making a second edition! For more information, visit www.tomdresser.com/.

Alexandra Bassett W hat do Baked Stuffed Lobsters, Yellowfin Tuna and Deep Dish Apple Pie have in common? Edgartown Seafood, of course. Located at 138 Cooke Street just off of Upper Main Street (catty-corner to the Mobil station), this tiny, family-owned, seafood market packs a big whallop, offering everything from the freshest, locally-caught fish and take-out you can find, to mouth-watering, out-of-the-oven, deep dish fruit pies of all kinds. “You gotta eat fish to catch fish,” says proprietor and islander Danny Larsen, who used to fish himself. “We pride ourselves on offering fresh seafood, and all the best local fishermen bring us what they’ve caught.” From mild Codfish and tasty-sweet StripedBass, to sushi-grade Yellowtail and Yellowfin Tuna, the day’s catch here is plentiful and varied, and also one of the best deals in town. “We’re a local favorite,” says chef Johnny Petrosinelli, “because our prices are good and everything’s fresh – our baked, stuffed lobsters are right out of the waters of MV, and we even make our own tartar and cocktail sauce. Plus, customers can call us 45-minutes before stopping by and have their lobsters boiled and ready to go with warm butter and all the fixings.” In fact, Edgartown Seafood is a lobster-lover’s paradise: take your pick of live lobsters, Lobster Rolls, Lobster Mac ‘n Cheese, or Baked Stuffed Lobsters stuffed with scallops, shrimp, and lobster claws in a sweet potatoe and vidalia onion base, topped with a creamy, Newburg-Alfredo sauce. There’s also steamers, mussels, and littlenecks boiled to order or fresh on half-shell, and delicious, freshly-made dips and pates including smoked Bluefish pate, jalapeno crab dip, and tuna spread, perfect for the beach and picnics. Not hooked yet? Well, that’s just the beginning of the take-out menu. Whether you like classic New England like creamy clam chowder, stuffed quahogs, and crabcakes; a little bit of Tex-Mex like decadent seafood chimchangas and fish tacos with roasted red pepper aioli; or southern-style fried oyster, shrimp, and scallop Po’ Boy sandwiches on fresh baguette, you can find it here. There’s also kid-friendly items like Chicken Tenders with Fries and Captain Crunch Fish Sticks, plus a Buffalo Chicken Wrap or Classic Chicken Sandwich for those who prefer land food. To top it all off, Johnny makes fresh, deep-dish, fruit pies of every kind daily, from Dutch Apple and Blueberry, to Key Lime and Apple Cranberry, that sell out as fast as he can make them. He’ll even make a custom pie. “All a customer has to do is call us 24-hours in advance, and if we can find the ingredients, we’ll make it,” says Johnny. So whether you’re a die-hard seafood or pie-lover alike, or just enjoy taking in some local flavor while exploring the island, Edgartown Seafood is must-visit spot bound to satisfy your summer seafood cravings and more. Edgartown Seafood 138 Cooke Street, Edgartown (508) 627-3791* *For same day orders, call at least 45-minutes in advance. Custom pies need 24-hour notice.

Originally built in 1873 this home has serviced many generations of the same family. In 1997 through 2003 an extensive renovation has been completed by the owner who is a successful Island contractor. He started with the removal of the old and the careful installation of a new title 5 septic. From there the home was re-suspended with new concrete piers and supports. Rather than loose the old world charm of the interior, all the walls were insulated on the outside of the home with rigid foam, a new layer of sheathing, new shingles and new windows. This type of renovation is more intricate and saves all the interior space.The roof was re-sheathed, completely covered in WR Grace Ice and Water shield and new Architectural roof shingles installed. All this has created a home that still retains the Old World charm yet is now structurally sound and insulated for year round use! With the home warm and sound a much needed garage with storage up above was added. Enjoy a glass of wine with friends on your private widow’s walk pondering the stars over the ocean and wake up to the sound and smell of the ocean, make yourself a cup of coffee, walk to your morning swim and enjoy your coffee, still hot on your own private covered porch, because you are just steps to the water!

Before getting a good view of one’s surroundings, the scent of vanilla extract and childhood nostalgia delights the nose. Then, a virtual kaleidoscope of candy opens into view, spilling over the shelves in every direction and cascading color and light all over the homey storefront. This Week interviewed Marguerite Cook, owner of the Good Ship Lollipop. Here’s what she said: What made you want to get into the candy business? I used to work at the county tax office, and we always had candy on the counter. When I retired after 23 years, people I would see in the street, and they would always say, “there’s no candy for us any more!” And I’d say, “I’ll open up a candy store-but you’ll have to pay me for it!” When we were dismantling my family house after my mother passed away, my sister found a picture of my mother in her coveralls, holding a doll and a big swirly lollipop! And that’s when I decided it was meant to be. That was in 2005, and I moved to this storefront in 2006. This used to be a candy store called “Hilliards Kitchen-View Candies.” Mr. Stacey, who owned the old business came to me and asked me if I would move my candy store to the old Hilliard building. If I would, he said, he would loan me his daughter Brenda to teach me, and and loan me his tempering kettles for chocolate, until I could get my own. If you had to choose one, and only one item from your store, what would you eat? I would eat...well, it’s a toss-up between the milk chocolate pistachios and the almond turtle with sea salt. What inspired your store’s name? I live on an island, they were decommissioning the steamship Islander when I started, and I was a big fan of Shirley Temple. One of her songs was, “The Good Ship Lollipop,” and that’s where the name came from. Can any of your customers see over the counter? I have trouble seeing over the counter! The children seem to stretch their necks and see-and if they can’t, there always seems to be a teenager or adult to help them. They like seeing the candy-we carry dark, milk, and white chocolate here, along with large selection of sugar free, vegan & gluten free chocolates and candy. Are you friendly with the local dentist? Very! I’ve brought him a box of chocolates before! The Good Ship Lollipop candy story can be found on 61 Circuit Avenue in Oak Bluffs.
