Farewell For Now

Well, this has been a long time coming.

After much consideration I have decided to formally end this chapter of Sustainable Sakonnet and stop publishing at this blog.

The reality is: It's kind of been ended for a while now. Since launching The New Pursuit about a year ago, my writing focus has been there as I've been exploring bigger and broader things related to this interesting mix of Life, Nature and Being. Couple that with my not-so-new-anymore bi-weekly column called "Simple Green Living" in the East Bay Life section of the Sakonnet Times (and all the other community papers under the mantle of East Bay Newspapers), and I no longer have the bandwidth to write here.

Beyond that, I continue to look for ways to simplify my life -- both online and off. Even though I wasn't publishing here all that often, having this sense of formal closure will help me peel it away for good.

Who knows? At some point, it might make sense to bring Sustainable Sakonnet back. But for now, it's farewell.

And with that I'd like to thank the countless people who have taken time to stop by, read and comment; those whom have given me well-wishes around town for the effort here the last four-or-so years; those who work so tirelessly in their own ways to make Sakonnet more sustainable for generations to come.

Until next time, thanks and be well. Feel free to stop by The New Pursuit at any time and say hello.

Best,
Bill
