WELCOME TO THE MADNESS!!

So excited to finally share my big news!! I bought my own island in Meyers Chuck, AK where I grew up! Yes, my very OWN island, it may be small, but it is soooo perfect for me 💕💖💗 and the whales pass right on the edge of the island during the summers, cruising back and forth, bubble feeding and breaching...and anyone who knows me well, knows how utterly obsessed with whales I am. And the view and sunsets are incomparable...my own little piece of heaven.

Next summer I will be building a little studio cabin to have a special place of of my own to retreat to and absorb the beauty and nature that will always be home. And of course to visit with all of my family whenever I want. And speaking of family, another cool thing about this island is that my older brother James has always had a dream to build a tall tower on it...so now he gets to!! I can only imagine what he's going to come up with...but whatever it is, it WILL be epic and the talk of Southeast Alaska...and beyond, hahaha. I do know he said it will be tall enough to require a light to warn all the floatplanes, hahaha....it's going to be soooooo good, I can't wait!!

​And it's only fitting that I have christened it MAD Island 😉😉😉 and bring a little bit of my Florida roots to Alaska with some fabulously flamboyant pink flamingos!! I can be an eccentric artist when I want, hehehe 😁😁😁
​
And thanks to my sister for providing me with all these great pics since I'm not up there to do it myself, and putting up my MAD sign and flock of flamingos 😚😚😚. I'm only just getting started, this is going to be sooooo much fun!!!
