Marvelous Maine Vacation

It was a beautiful, fun, family-filled week in Down East Maine. We'll definitely be back!

First stop in Maine: Red Barn near Augusta

Visiting Cousin Pam's alpaca farm

Annie loved them!

Meeting distant cousins Noah and Hannah for the first time

Lobster rolls on the water!

Milk Shakes at Morton's Moo in Ellsworth



Union River

Yep!

Hike to the other side of Newbury Neck peninsula

So many cool treasures when the tide was out!

Our place's old barn

The top of Mt. Cadillac in Acadia

Foggy morning on the ocean below!

The fog lifted enough for us to see an island out in the cove

Popovers and saisons at Jordan Pond house

The Bubbles!

By the sea in Bar Harbor
