Day 7
In Christmas Cove we saw these boys sailing
and using time honored light air technique.
I stayed in this house on Heron Island the
first time I ever saw Maine. I went down and
played on the beach in the evening and was gone
a long time. When I returned, all the adults were
sitting seriously in the house and looking grim and
worried. I was sure it was because I had been gone
too long so I hung back outside until I worked up the
courage to go in. It was the night that the USSR
closed off the Berlin Wall and everyone thought we
were probably going to war. I first came to know Maine
and the danger and trouble of the larger world on the same visit.
