Oh so beautiful~ Thank you for your posts here, they bring me such joy! I love your line "It is the actual life I’ve created by the choices I’ve made about the way I want to live." So inspiring today to read your words, thank you and can't wait to see your flowers bloom!
Thank you so much for your wonderful words and photos, Susie! As always, you inspire me. I may have told you that my husband died in August and that my daughter Amy and I are moving to South Carolina the weekend of April 30th. I’m working very hard to empty our big house that we’ve lived in for nearly 40 years so that we can go into a little house down the road from my son and his family. Thank you again - you’re the best!
I, too, have found my place of belonging. My husband and I live on a small acreage in north central Alberta. When we had decided to move out of town it was the first and only placed we looked at. Both of us felt, yes this is where we belong, before we saw the house. Now 45 years later and many renovations (it would have been cheaper to move) we still feel lucky to be here.
Susie, you nailed it with your poetic prose. I hope that we all manage to live on our beautiful island until our end days. The crisis in affordable housing is a direct result of the greedy mega house builders who have made it impossible for most of us to live here. It is no wonder that everyone from doctors and nurses to restaurant workers and farmers have no place to rent, much less buy an accommodation here.
Beautiful beautiful piece. Thank you. 🙏🏻 The real estate issue is a scourge, and I don’t know how I’ll deal with it up in Maine (my place ❤️) where it’s a problem identical to the one on the Vineyard. Also: a Cancerian? Did I know this? Me too.

"I'm not from here but I got here as soon as I could" - applies to many places people find to love.
Delaware would welcome you back with open arms but some of those corn fields are now developments!

Gorgeous writing. Photos are wonderful, too. Thank you.
You have once again captured the true essence of the island! Thank you for creating the images with your words! Spot On!
