Nice little cove accessible only by sea with crystal clear water and seals. #BeachBound
Beautiful mountains and sea! This is a great day in September! Don't miss the nearby Heriot Bay Inn.
I have no money, no resources, no hopes. I am the happiest man alive. - Henry Miller Leaving Cortes Island. I feel shrouded in mist but happy. The trip has mostly been a success. Coming back to Cortes with a group of Chinese parents and students was hard to pull off but extremely rewarding.

I Think Therefore I Am - René Descartes I think therefore I react I think therefore I follow the demands of heuristic programming I think therefore I am trapped in who I think I am I have spent many years idly philosophizing and it has taken me everywhere along a road to nowhere. Don't get me wrong. I like nowhere. It is the only place where I can begin to see who we are. It is a picture which is only beginning to form in my mind. Yes, I realize that the picture will never truly emerge but it is the shadows that define us which I am interested in. From nowhere, I can see those quite clearly.
