Wow, I've never heard so many looks and variations on islands! Even though I love them. In Arizona (and I believe it's the same for New Mexico, maybe??), we have "Sky Islands" - and they bring residents relief from the desert heat. Seeing your many aspects for islands is definitely thought-provoking!
Thanks! Yeah I don’t really have a good grasp on how esoteric my take on this subject is or isn’t - good to know you found it provocative!
Yeah the Sky Islands are a great example - I think I have been to a few actually but before I knew much about their significance. I think the coolest part is that they’re disjunct pieces of ecosystems further south, kind of like “offshore” islands in the ecological sense. It’d be great to revisit them sometime!
