Maine!


There is nothing like getting away and going to an island.  We are fortunate to have dear friends who own a home on Chebeague Island off the coast near Portland, ME.  Three years ago we went out to celebrate Alex's 50th birthday and this year we were invited back to celebrate his 53rd birthday.

The adventure started with a boat ride out to the island..... in the rain. 




We got there late, but when we woke up in the morning, this is the view we had to enjoy for three days!


And here are amazing hosts-- Alex and MJ Johnston


For the first time in weeks, we were able to just hang out.  We played games, went for runs, explored the coast, and read.  It was exactly what we needed.








There is something about islands-- just getting to them can be a motivation, but once you are there, it's the best!
