Independence Day was full this year. The weather cooperated for the annual Island Community Center Stonington Six race and walk, the parade, events on the Stonington fish pier, and the traditional fireworks over the harbor. Our stories and photos tell the tales. An unexpected area-wide power outage kicked off the work week. And the Stonington select board hears complaints about food truck customers using restaurant bathrooms. Summer on the Island.
