THE SOUND OF SILENCE!

     FOR FRIDAY, SEPT 19TH
          
 
  We're spending a few days with friends on
Vinal Haven Island off the coast of Maine.
   We haven't left civilization...exactly.
   You can only get here by Boat or by
 hitching a ride with the Mail plane that
 flies over each day. I guess you could,
 technically, mail yourself here
   We loaded our truck on a Ferry Boat
 that makes the hour and fifteen minute
 cruise across the bay,
    There have been some improvements
 since our last visit. Cell phones can
 now be used on a couple places on the
 island. Of course finding those spots is
 a little like searching for gold.
    There's a Grocery store. Just one.
    There's a Pizza place and a pub where
 you can get pizza when the Pizza place
 is closed.
     It's very quiet. Just the sound of a
 Lobster Boat coming by from time to
 time or that mail plane flying over.
    As far as entertainment is concerned,
 if your coming, bring a book and hiking
 shoes. You either walk or read.
    The other alternative, one favored
 by most of us, is napping. Rest comes
 easy here whether you're planning it
 or not. You can usually hear a pin drop.
 But most folks are careful not to drop a
 pin or anything else.
    There is beauty all around so the
 atmosphere lends itself towards
 relaxation.
    Want a movie? Bring a DVD!
    I'm finding that resting makes you
 tired!
    I'm not sure I'll have enough energy to
 make it back home!
    Hope you've got a restful spot too and
 that all your news is good.
