My Last Day With Mom in Camden

My last day in fab Camden.

I am so sad to be leaving my mother....

quite a few tears today.

A few uncontrolled teary outburst.

This is Camden from the mountain top

where there is a fort that is ancient.

My tour guide at the fort on the mountain in Camden.

{ mum in the hat with those HUGE Palm Beach glasses}

We had the most fun....laughs, laughs, laughs.

Much to mom's chagrin.....

she gets my humor.

And she just laughed and laughed.

I took this shot 

because it is this unbelievably chic veggie garden on a cliff,

on the ocean. Any place you are in Maine ,

with some elevation,

you will see sailing tall ships,

 small day sailors, and of course lobstah' boats.

After a bite of chowda' and a fried clam roll....

mom takes a break in front of

my fave place, 'Cappys.'

Just beyond this amazing garden

{this picture does very little justice to it's beauty}

there is the wide open ocean.

It is breath-taking here.

Mom loves these cows.

She had a farm in Liberty Maine that had them,

along with a huge heated barn with horses.

Home sweet home -

the view from the back yard.

The water in Harrington Cove is calling me....

but we decided to watch a movie and take a 

NAP.

All the excitement, sunshine, and walking.....

not to mention the looming sadness that I would be leaving

in the morning. 

Knocked us out.

We slept for over 2hrs.

That's a long nap!

This is mom's art studio.

She doesn't really paint there-

She hangs her art there -

and sells it from there.

This has been the best time spent with my mom ever!!!

I love you mom!!! xxx

I will be back soon ....

October?

We can throw another party for the artist in St Georges.

I LOVE YOU

One of my favorite things is ....

Swimming behind my mom's house in

Harrington Cove

Thisis the back of mom's house.

I am heading down the path

to the waterfront {Harrington Cove}

to see if the tide is too low.

Yep....too low.

But, if i wanted to go clammin' or digging for mussels...

I could.

But

I would rather not.

When it is low it is a muddy/sandy bottom.

yuck.

I came back later for my daily swim.....

I am in heaven.

How great is this???

Ok, Back uup tho the house for

rack of lamb & hand cut fries.

Poor, poor me!!!

heheheheheh

I am heading home tomorrow.

This has been a blissful trip and time spent with my mommy.

xx happy sunday

Day 'Two' With Mumzy

We started out in Tenents Harbor

having coffee and donuts. this nursury is just very cool.

like most everyone that I know here.  

There is mom off in the distance having her cafe and do not donut.

She is blond, wearing a blue shirt.

I loved this place.

Years ago,

I bought my mom's allim bulbs here.

And look...they have those highly fashionable split trees.

These were 'Mcentosh' {sp??} apple trees

The next part of the routine is going to mom's favorite spots.

below is one of her very faves.

see the man in the distance?

he is touching up the paint...

that is what you see everyone doing around town.

because...the winter is always a' comin'.

I decided to take a fab shot for her to paint.

To the right of this light house,

this picture was taken.

Now we are approaching my favorite funky village.

Port Clyde...

It is just very isolated....and old

this is a view of the villiage from a slight hill coming into town.

The coolest general store...EVER.

xxx have a great week end  xx

It was bumpy getting here ....

but it was so worth it!!

Just to see my mom's smiling face and her excitement was worth the traveling.

From Boston airport I was sent over to this little bugger.

Which actually I rather enjoy.

It always makes a journey feel like you are heading for an adventure

to some far out of the way place.

I was sitting right next to this one and only escape door.

It might have been valuable if perhaps I had a parachute

in my huge handbag.

No worries.

They fly pretty low,

and I am a good swimmer.

One of the passengers sat next to the pilot.

I was in the third row - the last set of seats.

Very comfy.

No seat belts really...

something that resembled dental floss.

The first thing I needed to make clear was

that I wanted lobsta' for dinner...

several dinners.

So this morning we headed down the street

where mom lives and really got two gorgeous 2 pounders for $13 bucks.

Pretty sweet,

but not half as sweet as the meat on a super fresh lobster

See the pond in front of this house.

This lobsterman stores his catch in the cold pond.

Pretty convenient.

But we went down to the end -

our favorite lobster pound.

Yes, that's mom....

I was picking this gorgeous yellow

blooming moss on the rocks for my mom.

Only to transplant it on to her limestone rocks at home.

Here is the yellow moss.

I hope it takes.

This is where we got the lobsters.

I took a shot looking down to the dock.

It made me dizzy.

There is Terry our official lobster man.

and...he either had a terrible twitch in his eye,

or he was actually winking at me.

Then we drove into Rockland

and there was the weekly farmers market.

Very Folksy.

I liked it.

Everyone makes and sells organic.

We had the most fabulous salad

from the greens we bought

and brought home.....

But, nothing can beat these guys.

Yummers!!

oh ....i forgot

I woke up to fresh pop-overs.

Mom makes the best.

{sweeeeet}
