Something Evil This Way Comes

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.
