Happy to Meet, Sorry to Part















It has been a Happy Thanksgiving for this mom... I look forward to the Christmas holiday to spend at home and have family gathered 'round, but it is a special time for me to meet up with Bryan. We get to see each other throughout the year at random times, and I hear of other families who only see their loved ones maybe once a year... hard for me to imagine. The three of us had easy conversations over the past couple of days and it was nice to share simple chores like making coffee, cooking breakfast, making the beer run...

We wish Bryan well over the next month or so, and hope plans hold true for him to come to Maine in December. Richard and I are already making tentative plans for gathering our family together around the holidays. For any of them out in blog land (Jen, Toby, Bryan, Bennett, or SK) let us know your availability and any ideas you might have!

I will note that this photo was taken using our new mono-pod to which our camera was attached, and the whole unit was carefully secured to our camp clothesline with clothes pins. The camera timer was set and we quickly assembled for this group shot. Nice, don't you think?
