Sark is a tiny island (3 1/2 by 1 1/2 miles) in the English Channel dominated by rocky cliffs, wild flowers, shore birds, and tractors. The population of 600 lives a slower paced, farming and fishing life without paved roads or motorized cars. Transportation is via foot, bicycle, horse, or tractor. Lourdes and I recently spent a week there with a group of Roanoke artists painting and photographing nature and enjoying the peace. I will show some of the sites of the island in this and the next blog. The last shot is the Doctor's tractor/ambulance...the chair in the back is to carry sick or disabled patients to the office.
