We sat on our deck that first evening, with two fold-up chairs, the only furniture in the house at that point save a borrowed air mattress. The boys were asleep, so LCB and I cracked open the bottle of wine our realtor had given us and watched the moon, not a supermoon but bright nonetheless, rise over the ocean on a night now seven years past. The moon, as it is wont to do, extended a path of white light across the waves that reached nearly to shore. The moment was already surreal enough, with little old me and big old LCB as the incredulous new owners of a beach house. The path only made the moment more so, extending almost to our door, much like a gateway to a new world.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.anislandmom.com\/?attachment_id=1286\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-1286\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-large wp-image-1286\" title=\"100_2099\" src=\"http:\/\/www.anislandmom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/100_2099-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.anislandmom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/100_2099-1024x768.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/www.anislandmom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/100_2099-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a>So we\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll be watching the moon again tonight, this time on real patio furniture in a home on a salt marsh, amid a last-minute Cinco de Mayo party I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m planning for the small people.
