Worth the drive!

It’s a rainy cool day in Maine but definitely worth the long drive to get here. Finn has already found his spot in the cottage …

After we unpacked the car, Keith went to the grocery store, Finn napped, and I pulled out my knitting.

There’s a lamp right by “my” chair which makes it perfect for reading or knitting. And when Keith got back from the store, we went for a walk. The cottage is just a few houses down from Willard Beach.

Our walk took us to Spring Point light.

For a while after I was diagnosed with my thyroid cancer I thought we might have to cancel the trip, I’m so glad I was able to get through my surgeries and the radioactive iodine treatment and feel well enough to come. Maine is my happy place!

  8. So glad you were able to make the trip. I misled you about the weather upon your arrival – somewhere the rain came in and I didn’t expect it all! Enjoy your time here – its a well deserved vacation.
