ME III: Date nite

What can I say? I'm a planner so we come to Maine with three date nights and lose ideas about other things we would like to do. See Paula, go for a hike or two, visit islands, or like last weekend, we planned for three years to walk across at low tide to Little Chebeauge and play in an inaccessible nature place Tonight we just went out to a restaurant, and had a good time even though it's a weeknight. (weekends are too busy). We went to the Fore Street Restaurant which I meant to take pictures but the conversation and the food were too riveting. We shared salad and delicata squash, I had hanger steak and Matt had halibut and we switched halfway through. Everything was delicious. Better than last time but not as good as the first time with friends.

Today was a usual work day a little warmer with the low at 49° and the high at 64° tomorrow will be a little cooler and we are likely to stay in more or less. What can I say, the trees are starting to turn and the days are more crisp. The humidity is down in the 40s so it feels dry. The giant radiators are on in the mornings.

We are tired and it got late for a worknight so without more ado...

What's that? Oh, it's a giant ostrich in the back of a truck! Not dissimilar to the Terror Birds.
People in Maine keep the strangest large objects. I mean what do they do with them the rest of the year. Where do you store your giant ostrich?
This morning is usual at the park.
The leaves seem to change by the day.
Cats of Portland. This is a busy street so....fast cats of Portland.

It's so petulant but no rain for us tonight.
Sha-za on the way to the restaurant.
It felt a little like cotton candy clouds. The pic doesn't totally capture it but you can use your imagination.
Triangle buildings in the Old Port
Sunset happened as we were a little early for our reservation
Different kind of French Laundry on this coast.
Alley love.

Remember to do something that reminds you that you are alive. Meditate. Skip. Dance. Eat with loved ones. Whistle. Something. With so much turmoil in the world, it is good to be connected.

Sending love,
