Mayflower Cottage isn’t a welcoming place maybe the name sounds sweet, but that’s where it ends.
I’m sitting with Scratch on the porch on a hot June afternoon, waiting for a storm to roll through. The air is thick and boiling like the clouds. There’s nothing but dark in all directions. Dark sky. Dark pines. Dark mountains. Brochures call Mayflower Cottage a lakeside getaway, but that’s a barefaced lie – we’re miles away from the water, nestled into the mountainside where everything is drowned in shade. Even the birds avoid us. Today the woods are quiet as usual, except for the creak, creak of the swing chair as I rock my heels against the porch’s peeling paint.
