60 degrees w/2 mph winds
Day 74
Foggy…I can see the tram, but not past it. The fog horn isn’t working well…can barely
hear it…need to call the CG.
Larry fixed breakfast (yes I do fix it
sometimes…but not if I don’t have too.
He fixed Eggs, Bacon, grilled potatoes, and toast. We have really enjoyed Bo and Bev. We talked about each others jobs, where Bo
has been in the military, etc…
Bev has already striped the sheets and remade
the beds next door, then she swept. They
have emptied their cooler to leave some items for us, which is always welcomed.
Bev wanted to go down to the cove and spend a
few minutes there alone. For her and me,
Seguin represents our beginning of life.
Our parents were here….it was just them and us, since we are the first
baby. It’s just a great place to be and
remember our past and the future.
Ethan said he was coming out, just don’t know if
he has a group today. He will be taking
Bo and Bev back to shore.
We thought we heard voices earlier, but looked
outside and couldn’t hear or see anyone.
Bev just got back, she hasn’t been gone long,
she fell! Her hip is hurting and she
skinned her lower leg. She will be
bruised, but she said she was ok. She
did hear a family out on one of the trails.
1:00 we headed to the cove…I kept watching
Beverly as she would turn and look at the lighthouse…she would take a few more
steps and look back. Most people won’t
understand what she and I feel for this place, but they do come and love being
here and seeing it…to them it’s just another piece of Maine History, another
lighthouse….to Bev and me…it’s OUR LIGHTHOUSE.
Ethan got them loaded and headed back to shore,
we said our goodbyes and hugs….I’m sorry that they have to go, but I feel like
we are blessed to be able to stay a little longer. The other boat group that had come up were
still in the cove, they started leaving the same as Ethan. We are alone.
I’ve been trying to get sick…thus trying to NOT
get sick…my chest is tight and I’ve been coughing the last few nights. I didn’t bring anything for a cold…since we
are here from May to September. So I’m
doctoring with allergy meds, hot tea, etc….
I’ll pick up something in town on Wednesday. I might have to sleep in the other room just
so Larry can sleep.
Rambo tried to get along with Bandit, I think if
they had had a few more days they would have been best buds. He is a sweet puppy, he’s just an alpha male.
Wasn’t sure we will get any more visitors today
because of the fog, but a couple who have parked their sailboat in the cove
came up for visit.
Larry and I were talking and it was as if we had
known Bev and Bo forever…maybe it’s the time we spent on the phone, or texting,
or facebook…or all the GREAT info she gave us to prepare us for island
living. It was Bo who helped me prepare
for my blog, he went step by step on how to set one up, etc…. Miss Ya’ll already!!
