a sparkling island week

This is the view when sitting inside(!) in the boathouse. We just spent a week in this little slice of heaven. and yes, the ocean is as close as it looks in the photo below! -about 25' away at high tide!


the view from up the hill from the boathouse. the sleeping cabins are to the left of the photos (out of view) ...

just about sunset , taken from the other side of the property... with Camden hills in the distancethe boys on top of TipToe Mountain... looking across the FoxIsland Thoroughfare, with NorthHaven in the near distance...
Our friends that came and stayed with us for a few days....
fabulous blackberry bushes all over the place.... these gathered from just beside one of the sleeping cabins....
our campfire one night at low tide....
super beach glass finds!
the best shower... EVER! the wall comes to about neck height (on me) and a view onto the cove, with tons of hot water to keep you warm..

This looks AWESOME! I want to have a shower there. Was it too cold to go swimming?

it IS awesome! and the shower is indeed fabulous.
if you are ever on this continent in the late summer, you are welcome to come and visit there, if I am there :) and shower too! :)
and yes, most certainly too cold in the ocean! but... there is a wonderful fresh water quarry that we swim in that is much warmer.
