Anyone else live on an Island?
I live on a small island, in fact its really small, 12 miles by 26 and It has an area of about 147 square miles. The only way to get here is by water, unless you have a private plane, as there is no tunnel or bridge. So, I was wondering, does anyone else here on MFP, live on an Island? .
