Holiday Lights – Freeport, ME
We were up shopping in Freeport yesterday, and manage to stay after dark, so were able to see the Christmas lights. (The picture is above is from the plaza in front of the main L.L. Bean store.) The lights are done by Pandora LaCasse, who now does holiday lights for a whole bunch of places

Wolfes Neck Farm – Freeport, ME
It was the work summer outing today, so we wandered up the coast to Wolfes Neck Farm, for a low key afternoon of relaxing and barbeque goodness. We were smack in the middle of the farm, with sheep, and oreo cows, and turkeys, and chickens – the kind of things that delight my urban little

Casco Bay, Maine
Sunday’s adventure, for something close to home, but a little different, was the Mail Boat Run – three hours cruising Casco Bay. We packed a lunch, and enjoyed the scenery and the cool breeze. We actually managed to see a seal, who kindly did a full length dive for us, and plenty of sea birds.
