The heart drawing is for a new project I’ve been working on, and might seem like it doesn’t quite fit with this post, which is mostly about my Airbnb.
Today I drove down to the Island and took apart a doorknob that had gotten stuck. Once I finally opened the door to the back room, there was a surprise inside: a whale was sitting on the bed. A stuffed animal I had never seen in my life. I checked with last weekend’s guests, and they said it wasn’t theirs. So it must have been a previous guest with children. The whale must have been nudged somewhere, maybe between the bed and wall, hidden from view, and the cleaner must have found it.
Meanwhile, last week’s guests left the sweetest review, and that made me happy.
After I checked on the house, I had lunch with my friend, and we loitered around a little bit. The picture of the books is from one of the stores on the Strand.
