My home is on Maury Island, which is connected to Vashon Island by a land bridge. We are almost at the top of the hill (hence Mauryhill) when you drive up from Quartermaster Harbor where Pixy and her hubby moored when they came over by sailboat. One of the roads connecting us to the main island is considered one of the most unstable in King County I recently read, and that is the one I have been taking to work for 11 years. Apparently the seawall holding back the Sound is old and decrepit, and the hillside by the road is prone to mudslides, especially when soaked with rain. I am going the OTHER WAY starting tomorrow.

This photo is taken from a local beach looking toward my part of the island. My house is up at the top there somewhere. Down at the end of the point is the Pt. Robinson Lighthouse, though you can't see it from this view.
