Our whole trip to Maine was wonderful, but there was one day early on when we were staying in Port Clyde when everything was absolutely perfect. The weather was glorious, the kind of weather where you keep repeating, even to yourself, how wonderful the weather is. The sun was warm, the breezes were cool and fresh. And for all the bookhunting I did on the trip, this was a day where our only excursion was a lovely evening walk with Lucy. We read, lazed, napped. It just doesn’t get better.
Sigh.
I resisted the temptation to put these photos in categories and instead post them here in strict chronological order.

You really need to write a travel book. You find the best places!
I love that Lucy is in so many of the photos. She seems so at peace.
Lovely photos. Truly.

I was thinking about how fortunate Lucy was to be adopted by you. She's having an amazing life. Gorgeous place to relax and refresh. We are heading to Maine (Portland area) next month. Terrific photos as always.
