Kaor, Paul!
With only nine residents, "town" is too big a word for this settlement. At most I would call it a "hamlet."
Ad astra! Sean
"Hestia" sounded familiar, so looking it up I find it is the name of the Greek goddess of the hearth. It seems appropriate for a place intended as a very long term home.
Kaor, Jim!
It does!
Ad astra! Sean
