Blossoming Trees

Nantucket in the Spring

The Massachusetts island of Nantucket lies 26 miles off the coast of Cape Cod, but a world away, especially in the springtime before summer's crowds arrive.
Nantucket Picture - Main Street Pacific National Bank and United Methodist Church

Nantucket visitors see the imposing brick Pacific National Bank building as they walk up Main Street from the ferry dock. The United Methodist Church is next door. Flowering trees are just starting to reveal their blossoms during the first weekend in May.
