This is a view of the coastline from North Beach, about a mile from the manse and bothy.  We have spent much of each afternoon walking and soaking in the breathtaking scenery. The road along the shore from north to south is about 3 miles. Only residents are allowed to bring cars onto the island, so there are very few and everyone pretty much walks everywhere. The residents mainly use their cars for when they leave the island.  The majesty of God's creation is everywhere and one feels deeply here our connection to the earth. May we all learn to take more seriously our responsibility to honor and preserve and care for it.
