An island is a moated asylum, a refuge, offering strategic retreat from the strife. Its isolation offers time and space away from the turmoil of the mainland. The lack of electricity and phones, running water and amenities gets folks back to the fundamentals. Winters in Lake Huron with sounds of expanding ice are conducive for thought and reflection on life itself. The warmth of bucking beaver trimmed logs doubles the warmth of the sheet metal stove. The freshest water ever is available with a hole in the ice.
