A quick update about life on the island.
I arrived here yesterday morning, unloaded my stuff and got settled and was immediately welcomed into a circle of folks.
Island life is very friendly. Folks seem very concerned for my well-being, which is interesting since I really don’t know these folks.
I walk around the island and ravens fly over my head and I hear them coming from the great “whoosh, whoosh” sound their wings make as the approach.
I drive by deer, standing quietly at the side of the road.
At night, I walk from one cabin to another and I am stunned by the stars above me.
I wake up in the morning and wonder why I am not being smothered by my cats, but hopefully I will remedy that in a few days.
I am not really an island person, but I like it here. I like having time to just let my shoulders drop a bit and that I care less about the things that I shouldn’t be caring about at all.
I like it. It’s quiet and friendly and good. My shoulders could still stand to drop down an inch or two, but I think this was a good move.
And I have e-mail, so please stay in touch.
i knew it’d be good. and pretty.
cats will relax soon too.
stay warm.
It sounds good.
