7-27-19 So much happening on Whidbey!

Last week, I wrote about how Whidbey has been discovered.  Our iconic towns - Langley and Coupeville - are now busy with lots of tourists as well as locals. And, of course, word about the beauty of Whidbey has definitely gotten out - the beaches and trails are much busier than I remember them from years past.

Another difference I have noticed is that music is everywhere now. When Ott & Murphy (now Ott & Hunter) first opened, it seemed like a unique cabaret to enjoy music (as well as wine). Now, I am noticing that there is music everywhere.  Most of the wineries and many of the restaurants are now venues for entertainment. And, music festivals seem to be happening nearly every week in the summer.

What is still noticeable on Whidbey is that most people who live here are friendly and welcoming. As I pass by people, it's common to see smiles.

I hope as the popularity of Whidbey grows, we can maintain that friendly attitude.
