Thanks for your writing In general and this piece in particular. I really appreciate the focus on a loved place and the changes--both hurtful and benign--that occur there. I'd like to share some of my writing about the San Juans with you; may I send you my three histories of the archipelago (Lime, Island Farming, and Island Fishing)?

Thank you, Boyd, for those kind words and generous offer. I'd be pleased to have your histories and learn more about the San Juans. When it is clear, I can see Mount Constitution from my home. Go to my website's contact page and send a message: https://adamsowards.net/contact/. We can proceed from there. Thanks so much for reading and commenting.

Thank you for this - it was heartbreaking to witness that time, and there is still so much to learn and help heal. I agree about Mr. Pyle’s writing, and was unaware of this book, so will look it up - keep at your own fine work!

I appreciate your kind words about my work. If you like Pyle's other writing, I'm confident you'll like this one. I'm glad I could introduce it to you!
