(Where Storms are Beautiful is a personal narrative of Gra...)
Where Storms are Beautiful is a personal narrative of Grace Hall McEntee and her husband, two teachers, who commuted in a small boat from their home on an island to their work on the mainland. Grace and Matt live on the edge. Their home sits at the top of an embankment facing north. Like harbor seals and goldeneyes, they are migrational creatures; seasons and storms shape their travel on the water. Where they live and how they travel has changed them. The island is their place to dwell as well as their place to grow and thrive. Storms is the story of their experiences and their learning. Each day they launched themselves into an adventure, through which they gained practical knowledge and understanding. On the water they maneuvered through fog and ice. On the island they engaged in communal problem solving. In the process of traveling on the water every day and living in their island community, they discovered that storms are beautiful.
