Off Road, Nantucket, MA

Image #13 Off Road, Nantucket - June 2017
No more excuses, and nobody wants to hear about my problems.
I decide I am strong enough for a residency. My last visit to Nantucket was 2002.
I still have sense enough to get out of town, and I am not flying to Zambia.
Day One I drive around the Island. I think I recognize a marker and make a U-turn - veering off Polpis to Alter Rock.
Earlier in the Spring after I started driving again I had some nerves. This I did not expect.
On my first highway ride, I had to take the next exit -- "WILL MY HEART KEEP GOING?" I spit at laughing ghosts.
But now a few weeks later on Nantucket, "I-am-fine," and this is my first off-roading.
I have no map, no turnarounds, -- - no fear -- -
