About this Book:

Read along as if you were riding aboard the tour boat Volsunga, as your tour guide Captain Bob Milne weaves his way through the rock strewn waters of the colorful Thimble Islands. Allow yourself to step back to a simpler time as he narrates all the old stories, legends and history of these storybook islands. A place where the child in everybody’s heart never ceases to exist. Where 80 year olds sail side by side with 6 year olds in gaff-rigged wooden beetle cats, ample porches embrace homes and take the place of living rooms, and outside showers are taken more frequently than indoor ones. Where skinned knees and stubbed toes are indispensable to all of those who are lucky enough to find themselves tripping down the pathway on their way to falling in love with these beautiful sea rocks. Discover in these pages the Thimbles wherein the water speaks to the rocks in meditating tones and the spy glass to one’s soul becomes more focused, when you detach yourself from the shore.
