In my blog I plan to chat about nature, crafts, baking, gardening, beekeeping, family, and whatever else seems appropriate at the time. Sit back, relax, and enjoy!

Thursday in Maine

On Thursday morning, while some of us were trying to decide what to do for the day, others soaked up some rays. 
Mom and Vickie and I decided to go to the Christmas Tree Shop.  I have no idea why they call it that.  There weren't any Christmas trees inside.  But they did have A LOT of stuff.  Others went hiking/walking at the Portland Headlight.  I don't have pics of that because I didn't go.
That evening we went out for another one of my pre-birthday celebrations.  It still was  NOT my birthday, but you remember I said I was celebrating all year?  Well I was and I did!
We went to a place called Saltwater Grille

and they had prices like this!  Sswweeerrrrrrrr (that's one of those whistles you do when you're a bit astounded by something....like prices on a menu!)
We originally had reservations to sit outside, but it was chilly out so we had them change us to inside.  You can see the restaurant has a great harbor view.


And here we all are.
And here is Theresa (sis) me and Vickie (cousin)
 And this is yummy birthday dessert!
 That I did share with anyone who wanted a bite.  It was SO GOOD!
I loved the blue bottles filled with cold water on the tables.  They looked great and no one had to keep asking for more water.
Awww Me with my Shug!

The whole gang except for John and Elizabeth.  I can't remember if they had to get in their UBER car and leave or if they were taking the picture.  Either way the picture turned out pretty good!

Twas a fun evening!

and PS don't be saying Happy Birthday.  (It's over in real life, but on the blog it isn't here yet!  teehee)
