Day 1290 - It's September!
Greetings, Bloggy Fall-Lovers!
I looked at fall photos for today's blog and can't bring myself to post one - I feel like it should still be summer...
It is a CRISP and INVIGORATING (read that freezing) morning in Maine - THIRTY SIX DEGREES.
If you don't think the people here are tough, you've never faced a frigid AUGUST here in Maine and thought 'Why are there so many people HERE with weather like this?'. Just kidding, the weather is beautiful if you love low humidity and COLD.
I heard a lady say 'We were robbed of our summer this year', referring to the rainy and cold summer season in Maine. I think she was right.
We went out for fried clams and lobster rolls for supper last night, and had to bundle up in fleece jackets because the Lost Gull has two types of seating - outdoors or screen porch!
A woman who attends our annual retreat showed me a 'spring photo' of her husband, enjoying the Maine spring sunshine in a lounge chair outside. The scene around him showed leftover snow drifts and ice on the lake in the background! Too funny.
Today we will travel to Providence and descend on my sister and brother in law's house. Yo, sis! Yo, Bro! We're planning to leave sometime before noon - we have to have breakfast at the place that serves popovers on Tuesday morning instead of toast.
TTFN and onward to my next set of vacation adventures in Rhode Island!

Give my love to Lyn and Steve and a big hug for Savannah (and for the boys if you see them).
In the 70's here today. Yes I will be doing a lot of b****ing about the cold weather when I move to Maine!
