So, Hubby and I are up here in DrivelLand...er....Maine and true to ReformingGeek form, I'm being pursued by critters, just like in Texas. This slithering little thing tried to cross the trail in front of us as we were hiking:
Eastern Garter Snake stalking ReformingGeekEarlier in the week, I had to defend myself against a huge Maine Bear:
You do see the bear don't you? For some odd reason, Hubby insists there was no bear.
I was beginning to do some serious worrying when this thing followed me back from Canada:
Check out those teeth and stand back away from that tail!
Today, Hubby and I went down to Bar Harbor (Bah-Hahbah) and I consoled myself with more seafood and a walk on the shore path. Flowers must like me as this "rose" was trying to give me a smooch:
But then my ship came in:
and I bought this house:
and we lived happily ever after.
Yeah, right.
For those of you that were really hoping for some snacks, here's a treat for you:
That's right: Organic/Natural Ginger Snaps (YUM!) and Chocolate Covered Blueberries (also YUM!)
So I ate all that stuff and topped it off with a trip to the Atlantic Brewing Company. They have a Blueberry Ale that I really liked. There were about 12 beers to sample. I think I passed out after #5 or #6 or #2. Heck if I know...
Speaking of DrivelLand, Hubby and I met Deb from Debbie Does Drivel and her Mr. Man (who just happens to have the same initials as Hubby). We had delicious popovers and laughed at life in general and shared ideas for some blog fodder. Deb is just as funny in person as she is on her blog and gave us some great hints about some special places in the area. If you're familiar with her "Why I Love ME Series", she's right. It's beautiful up here!
We're having a great time. We have a couple more days here but then it's back to the real world.
