Observations:
There are more pharmacies than grocery stores.
The largest minority is Chinese... a new wave of immigration.
Inlanders prefer the winter when the tourists are gone.
To be called an "islander" you need to be born here and have multiple generations to support your claim.
Riding on a trail is much more difficult than on a road with a wide shoulder.
