Sunday, September 17
We left the house by 9:00, had breakfast at McDonalds, stopped at Wendy and Dan's to pick up a table from their "forgotten" list, ate lunch in Belfast and arrived at the Asticou Inn in Northeast Harbor a little after 2:00, where we met W & D for popovers and beverages. We drove most of the way in the fog but it was 64* on the deck and sunny! We had a good view of the harbor and could see the fog in the distance.
The waiter was kind enough to take a group photo for us. Everyone looks good in this one, except me...
I look better in this one, but it's not as good of Wendy.
Interesting that the guys look good in both of them.
The popovers were large and wonderful. In fact, we had to wait about 20 minutes to get an order fresh out of the oven! I think mine looked like a walrus.
The price was $10 for two popovers and tea or coffee, about the same as last year.
The kids headed into town, Bill and I headed to the Edgewater Motel and Cottages, our home away from home. We unpacked, then sat in chairs down by the water until about 5:30, when we got chilly.
We brought filets to celebrate Wendy and Dan's sixth wedding anniversary. They provided portobello mushrooms and brussels sprouts. We also brought some pears that the guys grilled for dessert.
We played a game of Racko, which I barely won. Hooray for me! I'm not a very good winner but I'm a terrible loser!
We came "home" around 9:00 and watched a documentary about Vietnam by Ken Burns. I took a shower.
We plan to hike Penobscot Mtn. with Wendy and Dan tomorrow, weather permitting. Hurricane Jose is working it's way up the east coast and although it doesn't appear it will make landfall along the coast, it will screw up the weather. We should get to see some great surf, tho!
Thanks for stopping by...
