A lot of you knew that we were going away to Maine for the Thanksgiving weekend. We stayed in Wells and had a wonderful time. Rachael's friend, Emily, came with us and they did a whole lot of swimming in the indoor pool. This was the FIRST time I had ever been out on Black Friday and I even shopped! lol We went to Kittery where there are lots of outlets. I've never really been much of a shopper and never was a big fan of outlets BUT!!! I did find some bargains and there weren't many people there. The merchants said that most people were at malls in the long, loooooooooong lines. I heard a lot of people saying that they were out at 4:00 or 4:30 shopping. Ummm..... That's a.m.!!!!!!!!!
We took one day and made the two-hour drive further up the coast to Strawberryhill which is our absolute favorite place to be. We visited for some time with Dana, his mom, Violet, and Cheryl. It feels like a second home to us there. We even made our reservations for this summer while we were there! Woohoo! The link is on the left side for Strawberryhill to click on just in case you're interested. There is a cat there, named Pumpkin. An author who has stayed there has written a book on Pumpkin and it is a true story. If you go to the website for Strawberryhill, there is a picture of the book. If you click on the book, you'll see an actual picture of Pumpkin. Guess what! Rachael had taken this picture a few years ago. She was thrilled when she heard Dana was using it for the site.
I have lots and lots of typing to catch up on. I'll post when I can and will have pictures from our trip. Stay warm everyone!!
