Lummi Island
Lummi Island is in the San Juan islands up north off the coast of Washington state. It's a small island with little industry, the people who live there primarily work "in town" or anywhere off the island. It's a sleepy place where slow living is a virtue, a place where the intention is felt rather than thought. We spent a few days here just a 100 feet of the water in a little cottage.
One of the most memorable moments was the sunrise on the second morning. The water in the bay was calm and the taste of salt hung in the air. It felt like we were a million miles away from everything. The only thing you could do was be still and attempt to take it all in. I've never felt more on the razor's edge between complete calmness at the moment and frantically trying to capture what I was seeing.
