Mug of the Month - Carroll's Rapid Transit

Being on an island those services who help us connect with the rest of the world are so vital. This mug is from the 60th anniversary celebration in 1990 - a real classic from over twenty years ago, but still holds a tasty cup of coffee. Keep checking back as the web-site is under development:

Mug of the Month - Cape and Islands Radio

It is so nice that we can hear our regular Boston shows when we are
on the island. Here is a link to their site for all the information
on call numbers and a picture of their wonderful blue and white mug - great shape for sipping and not slurping.

Mug of the Month - Steamship Authority



It's an island so we could not get there without them. It's a new year and time to start booking the ferry tickets, so January mug is the Steamship Authority.

Personally I will always miss the Islander and many thanks to all of the personnel who get us back and forth so safely.
