Just the Two of Us

Sad Labor Day as it was our final few minutes with Carter and Claire. We had so much fun having them in Maine. This has been a great tradition to have them come and stay for the holiday weekend, but Labor Day always makes me sad as it means they will be going back to Boston.

It is never great to have to leave Maine on a Holiday, but it is even worse to return to Boston on September 1 as it is the great move in day for all the students. I was happy I didn’t have to make that drive and move anyone anywhere in Boston today.

So we were back to being just the two of us and the little brown dog. It could not have been a more beautiful day. The perfect temperature. To soothe the sadness we went up to the Owl’s head general store to get a sandwich. Turned out everyone else sitting at the picnic tables outside we also from Philly, so Russ had a little talk with his fellow Philadelphians.

I spent a little time cooking the things I got at the farmers market that needed to be prepped. Now we have food for the week. Good thing as I have a very busy week with all day activities three days in a row.

I took as much time as I wanted just looking at the water and nature. Total soul renewing Maine time.
