We all have our own corners and nooks to entertain, create,
and sit & read books.  Some are places we don't let anyone else
enter, and some are places where we don't like to be alone.
Anacortes has a lot to offer as far as community.  With friendly
neighborhoods, big yards and the advantage of a close-knit small
town, there's not much reason to be a hermit or a recluse on this
island.   Or is there?
