Saco

Waking up to Breakfast mimosas in front of a tidal pool is a thing I can repeat often. Granted, it was after a run so... health first!

We hung out for awhile but then got an Uno tournament going on the new porch. We did have to move indoors but I am proud to say that I won a few games. 

Courtney and Sierra arrived around ten and were kind enough to run back to the gas station. THEY DID HAVE THE LOBSTER ROLLS. And they are still amazing.

The tide was close to being all the way out so Courtney, Sierra, The Teens, and I headed out toward the island.
Even the lighthouse island was accessible


Right around 3, we headed back to Leeds. I had time to hop on the paddleboard for about 20 minutes before we headed back to Christine's. Dan had made us tacos with option of either turkey (which was perfectly spiced) or moose. I tried both and was satisfied by them all. 
Courtney had burned her legs pretty good so she went to sleep early while Sierra and I hung out with Christine.

Maine

Porch picture at about 4:30

Courtney's first time kayaking -- she rocked it. We went out to the right for about 15 minutes then came back in



When we got back, I hopped on the paddleboard for about 20 minutes

By the time I returned, C&S were on the beach, soaking up the rays


But then Mama Steph, Papa J, The Teens, and I were off to Dan's sisters' cabin in Saco. It sits between a tide pool and the ocean. It is quite small but awfully wonderful.

We arrived in time to walk out to the little island
Then it was time for some serious Uno playing as well as a mile-long walk around the neighborhood. It is all second homes and houses that have been in people's family's for decades (if not longer). 

We had leftover fish and scallops for dinner. It was excellent.

Christine and I hung out drinking G&Ts and then going for a walk around the neighborhood
A late night but highly enjoyable.
