Something has clicked with the ice melting, suddenly my relationship to this place has changed. I am aware of the silence, and the absence of a connection to the grid that stretches across the globe, my heart leaps when I come in the door.
I had an inspiring conversation with the lovely Tina Roy the other day, and realized that even though things are a bit of a slog right now, this is actually exactly what I came here to do: experience houseboat life, reconnect with the wilderness, music. Feeling reaffirmed.
