Faded beauty...

A random fence line with weeds and trash, I know, but it was so sweetly charming.  A shabby chic corner of the world that gets walked past and overlooked daily.  There was something poignant about the clutter of blossoms brightening up the debris.  The faded flag has stories to tell, I just know it.  August 16th 

Really scary...

It needs to be said.  I have waited for a while now, just check out my earlier attempt at sidestepping the issue, but I can't hold back any longer.  IT IS TOO EARLY!  There, I have said it.  I am sure I will be saying the same thing about turkeys with pilgrim hats in September and jolly red coated men with big bags of plastic swag in, well, September but that doesn't change the facts: I do not have the will power to avoid fun size Snickers for 3 months!  And yes, I know that is their evil scheme.  August 15th

View from the other side...

So simple but striking I think.  I love the play of light and shadow on the fencing and the gradations in the blue sky.  It made me happy.  Post for August 14th but from a few weeks ago.  Part of the the lost days series.  Man I hate sinus infections!  

Maine-ly fish food...

We had to eat at an authentic Maine seafood restaurant.  My son made me promise to post an image of the paper towel holder over our table.  They did not sit us at the messy kid table.  Every table had a smiling lobster offering assistance with your sticky hands and face issues.  We had to wait for almost an hour to get seated but we had the lowlands to look at while we did.  It was all worth it!  Oh and this is officially the last Maine post so no more Maine-ly punny post titles.  I know you are sad but all good things must pass.  LOL   Post for August 13th but really August 10th.  Part of the lost days... 

Maine-ly yummy...

We went to Stonewall Kitchen's first (and best) location to see what we could see.  The gardens were beautiful, the store was jam packed (no pun intended but noted) with the best things and the restaurant was way too alluring.  I didn't take photos of the baked goods because I was too afraid I would have to buy one of everything that drew my attention.  Trust me, it was all yummy.  We are still enjoying the many jams and jellies we brought back with us.  If you are anywhere near one of their locations, you have to go!  August 12th

Maine-ly coastline...

It was the wrong time of day, I know, but the view was spectacular.  August 11th

Maine-ly sightseeing...

More images from Maine.  This time it is just a hodgepodge of moments from our walk through the town of Kennebunkport.  The people, the places, and the scenery were all so charming.  August 10th
