Truly Vintage: — If an opportunity has come up on Orcas, take it. We are trying island life just a few skips northwest of you, on Mayne, as I have written you on the other post you started. I love the quiet. Lots of community. We go for walks and stop to talk to people who recount the history of logging back in the 1950s, or farming in the 1900s. People are always willing to share. Vancouver area (where we still have our house in the burbs) feels very hectic and stress-inducing. And true, a lot more people have escaped to all the islands since covid (and may go on working remotely indefinitely) but in a few weeks Mayne will become very quiet again through till next spring.
