Why are People Dressing Like Super Heroes on the Island?

Metropolis has Superman. Gotham City has Batman. And we have... Well, we have a girl who dresses like a Super Hero, but not because she wants to be a crime fighter. It's for other reasons. Keep reading.

Today Rose is helping a new farmer who is completely oblivious to the trade of farming. To help out this newbie farmer, she is delivering a new worker, a dog, supplies and some Island Life experience to help our friend Scott's farm flourish. 

So why the costume?

It's not really a costume. It's actually for a practical purpose. Islanders like Rose know that to many hours in sun at a latitude of 12 degrees is going to cause burning of the skin, and premature wrinkling. When you damage your skin with to much sun, you are actually damaging the bodies largest organ. Yes, your skin is an organ, and its the bodies largest organ. So when Rose & the other islanders are dressed like super heroes, it's partially their sense of humor, but it's also for a practical reason - to protect their bodies.  (Oh... and most importantly - to prevent my wife's skin from premature wrinkling). 

Personally... I'm going to ask her to dress like Wonder Woman next time :-)

Tell your friends... Island Life is Awesome!
