Our Island is Part Funky/Artsy

We have a lot of highly regarded artists on the island, and every Mother's Day weekend they organize an art crawl at which art lovers drive from studio to studio to view artists' work. One artist serves up a double treat, of not only his art, but an absolutely fabulous garden he & his wife have constructed over the years. It looks like it's professionally installed & cared for, but they do it all themselves.

Two photos on the upper right illustrate another of our artists, whose lair on his woodsy lot can be identified by this delightfully designed gate & metal sculpture.

The bottom photo is the funkiest of 3 small grocery stores we have. In addition to those stores we have a strip mall style shopping center, close to the center of the island, with a "supermarket" which most people use.
