In The Beginning

In the beginning there was hope, Dick Birch's hope for a simple place, healthy life and lots of friendly people. Then there was Small Hope -- the Bay -- named, some say, by the pirate Morgan who said that it was a "small hope" that anyone would find the treasure that he buried there.

Then there was Small Hope Bay Lodge, the place that grew out of the hope and was built on the Bay that hid treasure and became the place that Dick built.
