I live on a little island off the west coast of  :canadaflag;
This sounds so interesting.  Could you tell me about this island, or tell me the name so I can research it.  I love to hear about islands..

I myself am living in the beautiful island of Tortola, the chief island in the British Virgin Islands.  We are next door to the United States Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico, in the northern Caribbean.
I am from the equally beautiful island of Barbados, more southernly in the Caribbean.

I know how you feel. I grew up in farm country in Maryland. We went sledding among the cows in the field next to my house. My high school was surrounded by corn on 3 sides. Once, during Ag Day, a pig got loose in the school. Oh yeah, and the kids who were in Future Farmers Of America actually drove tractors to school on Ag Day!
