August 2025: Tourons & Life in Vacationland

Since this is my blog and I can do anything I want with it, I’m starting off the August post with a piece of July I’d wanted to feature but forgotten about.

There’s a house on the West side of the island with a little library that they’ve created to be a miniature version of the house itself.

It’s also the first little library I’ve seen with chairs and the offer to let passersby stick around to read right there.

Was too cool to to leave unwritten about.

And now, on to August!

The month started out with ’80s movie weekend.

Someone brought a giant inflatable projector screen to the ballfield, and we got to watch Ferris Bueller outside with popcorn and candy.

I thought there would be a big turnout for this.

As it was, there were maybe half a dozen groups of people.

Whatever the case, it was a lot of fun.

A little later, I was on a walk and found this albino bird.

I’d never seen one out in the wild, so snapped a picture and then did my best to usher it further from the road.

The next weekend, some of Molly’s friends came into town for Homecoming weekend.

We ordered out that Friday night, and I found out one of the local shops has a sandwich named after me.

(Shhhhh, it was totally named after me…)

They also introduced me to some of the best wings I’ve ever had, but that’s for a later part of the story because those deserve their own feature, haha.
