Maine

Trilby · 06-24-2010, 04:19 PM

I'm heading out to Sebago lake again this summer.

Maybe I can get my traveling companions to stop in Philly?

We're heading out July 30th....

I'm heading to Maine on Sunday. Short trip. Back on Tuesday.

I was just looking at the weather forecast and it's supposed to be 22 degrees cooler there. 75 instead of 97. Yeah!!

lumberjim · 06-30-2010, 01:06 PM

are you back yet?

glatt · 06-30-2010, 02:05 PM

Yeah. Just got back last night. It was a great time.

Friday I flew up to Boston and took a commuter train to visit my brother in Gloucester. We went kayaking twice. I need to go through the pictures and maybe start a thread or something. Cool festival going on there.

Then Sunday, I went with him and his family to my cousin's 50th birthday party in NH. Lobster bake. Yum.

After that party, I caught a ride with my Dad up to their house in Maine, and helped him for a day on this crazy project on the addition that is being built onto their house. He didn't want the builders to touch this project, so I helped him out. Basically, it's radiant floor heating for a roof to melt snow.

The weather was perfect every day. It even rained the day I was helping my dad, which means the builders working on the exterior stayed home, and we could have the job site to ourselves.

nice - sounds like a good plan. I've seen them at the base of the roof, but not the whole thing. I guess up there it might be nice to have when you get a boatload of snow, eh?
OH and just noticed this -

Shawnee123 · 08-01-2010, 10:12 AM

Oh, more updates. Pics?

I'm envious!

Trilby · 08-04-2010, 07:59 AM

my sis didn't bring the cable to put the pics up but we will when we get home. went to freeport and Reid state park yesterday - portland today (supposed to rain) and the Marginal Way thursday.

It's nice to get away but I miss my dog and kitties~!

glatt · 08-04-2010, 08:13 AM

I love Reid State Park. Did you make it to Five Islands for lobster on the dock?

Trilby · 08-05-2010, 10:30 AM

we made it to five islands but no lobstah. No one in my family eats that stuff!!

I'm kinda sick today - too much sun, too much heat, too much walking (my sis is known for her death march-like agendas) and too much togetherness. Today I'm staying at the cottage and they are going to Auburn to visit relatives. It's hot here, too. Very hot. Unusual for Maine - even in august.
