It wasn't perfect. Everyone wants you to come back and say "it was great!," but to be honest, there was hardship and sadness on this trip.
But there was beauty and joy, too, and sunny days amidst the fog.
Here are a few glimpses of the parts I want to remember:
Lots of delicious meals and treats.
A slow morning exploring "the bar."
Exploring water flow and erosion at Sand Beach.
(and these weren't even the most-beautiful parts of the hike; those came after the camera battery died) |
Lots of gliding down big hills on Lucy's balance bike.
Watching boats and marveling at the juxtapositions: big and small, old-fashioned and modern, luxury and working.
Time on nearly-empty beaches with gorgeous views.
Spectacular treat choices for our dairy-free girl (blueberry-basil, here).
Taking time to check out the view from the tippy-top of this bridge's tower on the way home.

Lise, you blogged! Yay! It's fun to see how much Lucy has grown since I last "saw" her. Silvie is doing lots of drawing and cartooning these days but I have yet to give her needle and thread. I guess it's time. You've inspired me.
We spent six weeks in maine this summer as part of our new homeschool/travel/live/etc mantra. It was too gorgeous and these photos capture so much of what is special about it. Wild nature at every turn!
