While I was reading about your hike to Christmas Cove, I was reminded of another author who is a favorite of mine, May Sarton. I am very fond of her journal, The House by the Sea. I hope that you will stop in to visit Bentley and me at our little cottage.<br /><br />Love,<br />Susan and Bentley<br />xxooSusan Freemanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04323206599839838089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8434499602695302521.post-59657232645840620262010-05-05T05:45:04.988-07:002010-05-05T05:45:04.988-07:00You're so busy in such wonderful ways!

I graduated in 1975 from Cape Elizabeth HS, as did my husband in '73 from Rockland HS. We go to Maine every summer. His family has a 'camp' on Sebec Lake above Dover Foxcroft. I have my 35th HS reunion in July in Cape Elizabeth;-) I hope you enjoy your time there, but it doesn't sound like you will be there long, with all of your traveling. I hope you'll get to spend a big chunk of time there over the summer, though. Happy Gardening;-)Janhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12844013803699228989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8434499602695302521.post-18489820052783811152010-05-03T21:45:29.912-07:002010-05-03T21:45:29.912-07:00On my new post I have a photo of the adorable litt...On my new post I have a photo of the adorable little bird house I bought at Heart's Ease.

You do some serious traveling. How wonderful for you. <br />When we were in Maine last, Howards brother could not get reception on the island. When I got there my phone worked great so I think it may be what service you have. This time when we come back I will be able to check my email on my cell phone. It never ceases to amaze me how times have changed.<br />Our island is off the coast near Bucks Harbor. What a lovely state. My husband was raised there but settled in California. His family is all there...so we come back each year.

Here is the link. A recent post shows the Mermaid's tears in a bowl. They're more beautiful than diamonds and my favorite jewelry is made from tears found on our local islands.<br /><br />I am sitting in a dark car, in the middle of a rainstorm, on a dirt road, in front of a house with a hot spot so that I can receive and write e-mails. I am sure that if the people look out their window they will suspect stalkers.<br /><br />Love your comments and words of friendship,<br /><br />Sharon<br /><br />OOPS, Jeff just changed the Garden Grow Along link to the correct one.
