Did a Family Ghost Lure Me to Nantucket? A Special Episode with Betsy Bush

For the last Nantucket edition of the year, I’m sharing a personal story that kind of fits with the spooky season of Halloween.  It’s the story of my first visit to Nantucket, only five years ago during COVID, when the island was shut down.   Those months when the town almost deserted, it was very easy to imagine Nantucket as the setting of ghost stories told at night on the beach around a campfire.
Nantucket exerts a pull for many of us that we can’t really explain.  Of course, it’s beautiful and charming in the summer, but some of us wonder if there isn’t something else going on.   Please enjoy my tale of Nantucket discovery.
