Don’t know what the temp was this morning
At 4:45 it was 68 degrees w/5 mph winds
Day 104
Today was our go ashore day!
We just got back.....Tired…..dog tired!
Thank you so much to my WW….Dot Young got to
join them today, no time for us to visit, she’s getting out of the boat as I’m
getting in…one of those “hi/bye” moments.
Cyndy had to go, wish she could have stayed a couple of more days, but
we had a great time.
Ken Young had gotten the label for my daddy to
add to the “keepers” board…I cried…I’m going to have my momma put it on the
board, while me and my siblings watch.
Thank You Ken!
It has been a foggy day, which I think makes
this about the seventh day in a row…the thing with the weather here in
Maine…it’s kind of like Texas weather….wait a minute and it will change….it’s
foggy one moment and you think you are socked in, then slowly it clears and you
can see…but wait…what you see is another fog bank coming at you with more fog.

| Told you it was foggy |

| My island is somewhere over there...coming into the cove |
Had a great day today, except I didn’t “check”
the washer when I started it at the Laundromat…. I did everything and pushed
start then we left to run to the office…came back to throw our two loads in the
dryer…and mine was still sitting there…dang it.
The lid hadn’t closed as well as it wanted. No big deal, we had time…got to watch a
little TV while we waited for it to wash.
We were going to run to eat breakfast while the clothes dried…a lady
that was also doing her laundry told us about a place we hadn’t been…Starlight
Café in Bath….It was good….almost couldn’t find it…it’s one of those hidden
places..we will be back!
Went to the office to hand in my sales, visitors
log, etc… Catherine has been on vacation
and looked fabulous!!! Anne was also
there and she had a package for me…
She said it was some clocks for the dwelling
“YEAH”…and Blueberries, and they are fabulous, thinking about all my jealous
friends back home!! Later I found a
bottle of Maine Maple Syrup also….Thank You Anne!!

| Does anyone know what time it is...I do! |
 |
| Loving me some blueberries....thinking pancakes in the morning!! |
Got the laundry done, pharmacy scripts filled,
then off to Topsham to pick up a new wagon for the island…on sale! Then to
Brunswick for groceries…But first I had Larry drop me off so I could get my
nails done…this is a rare thing to have a manicure…but my nails have grown and
I needed something to help them stay that way.
Larry proceeded to Walmart to do the grocery shopping.
We finished early, so I called Ethan and let him
know about what time we could be at the dock…stopped at Spinneys and split a
hamburger and onion ring basket.

Two gentlemen came on shore as we got here and
they helped us up with our supplies! A
God sent! I fixed them a glass of Sweet
Texas Tea!
 |
| Good times with visitors...repeat visitors I might add! |
Larry sat out talking with them, they have been
here before, they were talking about having sailed to from Portland to Bermuda
and had great weather….mentioned something about a possible hurricane, but all
was good. They proceeded to go take a
hike on the North Trail. They have a
sailboat in the cove and are going to spend the night there and head to
Monhegan tomorrow morning. Thank YOU for
helping us.
Today was a THANK YOU kind of day…all these
wonderful people doing wonderful things!
