Reporting to you live from Maine :)

Well, Rachel and I have been thoroughly enjoying ourselves so far visiting our friends in Waterville, ME... and it has had nothing to do with our current proximity to and availability of lobster, lobster, and even more lobster.

So far, we have eaten lobster, in some form or another, 3 times in 6 days... I think I'm slacking severely though. I finally got some steamers today at lunch, and we're having baked stuffed haddock for dinner... YUMMMMMMMM!! But enough about the lobster...

Rachel and I have spent time touring our (Archie & my) old home town of Bath, Maine, including our extended family's land at Birch Point in West Bath, as well as Augusta, where I used to live prior to meeting Archie.

We were so lucky to get to witness the first-ever football game that the Kornsey boys played in. Unfortunately, they lost 25-0, but it was to the what I was told was the best team in their league. We also went bowling, and have spent some nice time socializing with their neighbors.

Unfortunately, I am leaving here tomorrow to head to NH. I am sad Archie hasn't been here to revisit some of our old haunts, but glad I was able to make it at all. It truly has been too long. On my way out of Dodge tomorrow, I think I'm going to hit up LL Bean's in Freeport for a bit before leaving the Great State of Maine.

Oh, and I have to remember to pick up some (you guessed it!) MORE lobster for Archie to have when he arrives in NH on Thursday night. :)

So, I'm just going to stop apologizing LOL

Rachel and I are preparing for our long overdue trip to New England to visit some old friends. We'll be staying with our friends in Barrington, NH and Waterville, ME for about 5 days each, so we're pretty excited about that right now!

We've been pretty busy, but I couldn't tell you doing WHAT exactly. After our trip to Missouri, Rachel and I went to New York and New Jersey to visit Rachel's grandparents. While we were there, we went on a train ride (www.durr.org), went swimming in Arch & Nan's pool, made a stuffed animal at the Build-A-Bear Workshop, saw the Atlantic Ocean (at Long Branch, NJ), and generally had a good time with family.

More later (hopefully) :)
