Thanksgiving on Useppa - Thoughts and Photos by UseppaGin - Thanksgiving was quiet on Useppa this year, but it was the best Thanksgiving dinner ever at the Collier Inn. Recovery after Hurricanes Helene and Milton is still going on and rebuilding the main dock is a slow and arduous process, but the spirit of the island never left. Those of us here are grateful for each other and grateful our island homes. Useppa’s Service Department staff works tirelessly to restore landscaping and solve problems. The Joseffa Boutique is now in the old golf pro shop by the pool. A new mailroom is being built under Grandmother’s Cottage where upstairs Reception and the Captains share an office. The launch is running on a limited schedule coming and going from a Village dock. The Collier Inn is open Friday, Saturday and Sunday with a hard-working crew and a delicious new menu for lunch and dinner. Cheers to Happy Hour fellowship and Useppa perseverance.
