Patagonia (5.30.11)

Brian, Tina, Carson, and Blue took us to a house closeby to ride out the rain storm.  Friends of theirs, the house is actually owned by the man who founded Patagonia (and yes, I'm referring to the designer clothing and gear company).  His 92 year old mother spends time on the island, and although she wasn't there at the time, we were able to admire the beauty of her place (from the outside).  The finishing touches on the house, including a fresh water system supplied by rain water, reflects this family's conservation philosophy.
