Moosehead Lake, Maine

A couple of weekends ago Prince Charming and I went away without the girls for a four-day excursion to Maine. For details on why we went read this post. We had a great time! It was such a wonderful get-away that we have already decided to do it again next year... maybe not Maine but somewhere for a four-day weekend where we can sit and talk and get things done without interruption. We spent most of our mornings working together in workbooks and discussions. We spent the afternoons doing touring, and the evenings we went moose hunting. We did find one moose, quite close too. We also saw a bald eagle, another bird (the name escapes me), and large deer. We went hiking one day to a beautiful waterfall. We also went to the coast on our way home and had lobster, visited LLBean, and walked up the street in all the little outlet shops.

We stayed in a B&B in Greenville, ME and I think we came to the conclusion we are not B&B people. We went away to be away and spend time with each other and we did not like having to socialize with others. We wanted a little more privacy to be able to climb into our PJ's and watch some cable TV (a treat for us) while lying in bed. But it was still ok and we still had a wonderful time.

Princess #1's kindergarten class has a stuffed animal, Itchy that gets to come home with them when they go on special trips or it is their birthday or a special day for them. We took Itchy with us on our trip and took lots of pictures for Princess #1 to take to her classroom. We had a lot of fun photographing Itchy it lots of places.

All in all , Maine was GREAT! B&B was wonderful! Marriage conference was a success!
