Years ago, one of my customers said that her favorite part of arriving on the island is her view of the wide open sky.
On the beach or bay, there is nothing to obstruct the sun and clouds…except the occasional banner plane!

Summer Solitude
Each year, Memorial Day weekend takes us by surprise. Â The island transitions from sleepy to crazy almost over night.
And then just a few days later, we revert back to a quiet beach town…at least for the next 2 weeks!

Observations While Walking
As mentioned in an April post, several American oystercatchers have established residency in the south end of Stone Harbor and the Point.
In recent weeks, I noticed a lone oystercatcher wandering the sand. Because I always see the birds in pairs, I thought he/she lost a mate?
This morning, I was glad to see the “single” bird joined with another pair. Â Maybe a #sisterwives arrangement 😉
