Early August

The scent of early August  in Nantucket is so delightful...the aroma of Sweet Pepper,  Clethra Alnifolia,  fills the air.  I love my early Saturday morning bike ride around the Polpis Loop from Sconset to the Rotary and back to Sconset,  and the wonderful smells perfume the island.  I love July's smell of privet ....and the scent of the swamp azalea,  but sweet pepper is my favorite.
