Happy trails to me.

Here is the ocean in Popham Maine.
Looking at pics of the trip it is hard to believe tomorrow we head back. It has been a very nice trip minus the two times we almost got killed by stupid drivers.(don't ask).
I was happy to see baby brother and his family, my nephew and his 3 year old twins and of course to be in Carbondale were Bec went to school.
Bec played in the Atlantic ocean, the York river and a giant gum boot at L.L. Bean. We had our lobster, lots of Sonic cherry limeade, and homemade brownies. Drove thru several mountain ranges and had some beautiful scenery. All in all it has been a good time and we are still all alive!Lol. But going home sounds really good now-miss hubbie, own bed, and of course Ozzy and Harriet.
I promise more pics later. Ta Ta for now.

Boldly going where I've never been before...

Becki and me. Still fresh and spunky!
Ok. So I don't have alot of pics yet, but for the last week I've: had a lobster roll in Maine, seen the ocean in that part of the world, been to Ben and Jerry's in Vermont-yum ice cream, spent way too much money at LL Beans(cool store), tried to visit Goose Pond, and visited family.
Williamsburg was cool-not temp wise-I was expecting wooden cabins but the houses are mostly brick. I was hot in shorts I couldn't imagine long dresses w/ petite coats!
Today we head for Kentucky after spending the night in Tenn. to visit more family and eat more taste treats!:)

WE LEAVE IN 4 DAYS!!!!!!
Fun in the car............ going across the eastern front......... seeking out new adventures and life forms on or never ending journey thru the fun states!
OK so I'm pumped.
Going to hit Ben & Jerrys. Going to a yarn/supply store -YES! Going to 'drop' in on family. Going to get berries. Going to be sick and tired of car ride-but loving every minute!

Yeah! School's almost done!


Yes it is hard to believe school is done tomorrow! And the Becki trip is only 6 days away. 6 days away from another adventure with my fav traveling partner!

I tie-dyed 10 T-shirts and will help Becki dye her own shirt tonight. I haven't finished Beth's dragon but I am working on it (along with earrings, a doily and something else). My camera is MIA so I don't have pics. So I need to beg Bec to let me use her camera so I can show all my little projects.

My husband and I have been sleeping out in a tent since Becki has been home(too many people not enough beds!) All I can say is- yeah. I forgot how loud nature is at night. You don't notice all the noise when you are indoors. And the bathroom is alot harder to get to. But I like to camp and on the Becki trip we will be doing alot of that! (cheaper then motels!Lol.)
I can almost taste the Vermont maple syrup, the Ben and Jerrys and the fresh Maine lobster--yummmmmmmmm.
Hope all of you there in blog land have a great time in your adventures! :)-

A time to say 'Thank You'.


Happy Memorial Day and thank you to all the men and women that have given so much that we can live in a free country. I am proud to be an American and I thank all those people all over the world who also fought and gave their lives to keep all of us all free. I appreciate their sacrifices and honor them today as well.
