Iceland is a both a simple and complex place. Of its 330,000 total population, few live outside the Reykjavik area.

I toasted both the memory of that impulsive day and Larry, who has since left us. Oh, how I miss those days. As for Provincetown today, it has changed and so much for the better. … [Read more...]
