sabbatical reflections: setting the scene

so my sabbatical was on the coast of maine at a place the current stewards call dickinson’s reach. it is originally passamaquoddy land and the arc towards access and stewardship that includes them has begun. there are two primary ways to get to it. one is to park at a small lot and walk a 1.5 mile trail in. the other is to take a canoe or small boat from a little launch called duck cove. it is the most remote place i ever had done an extended stay.
