Despite Martha’s Vineyard deluge, Obamas dine out
OAK BLUFFS, Mass. — More drenching rain and wind gusts are in the forecast Tuesday for the vacationing President Barack Obama.
A weather front that moved in Sunday has helped keep Obama and his family out of public view during the last few days on Martha’s Vineyard off Cape Cod.
Mostly, the Obamas have remained at their rented vacation farm complex. However, Monday night, braving a howling rainstorm, Obama and his wife, Michelle, finally managed to dine out.
The president did drive across the island Monday to play basketball with friends and aides at a local elementary school gym. Later, he and the first lady joined friends at a restaurant in Oak Bluffs.
