Arrival week: ME IV

Happy September this is for the first week. Tomorrow is a new day!

The abode: View from where I work up in the lofty area looking down on the regular living space.
Kitchen and dining area - still in unpacking mode
Merhorse? Maybe from a vintage carousel? Wall art on the landing up to the loft
Stairway up to the loft where I work
The loft mentioned above. It's warm up here always. This doubles as a second bedroom but the actual bedroom is down below.
I love the pattern on my work chair
Breakfast with light streaming in
The ISLANDS!
Poppies around as symbols of hope. The islands were hit hard by big storms that took out the sea wall and ripped up the road. It's still in a bit of disarray. The people of Maine are particularly resilient and have a strong sense of community
The moon and Venus and what a sunset! The islands also have better sunsets
Found this on a street near where we are staying. Just remember it was only 100 or so years ago that women got the right to vote and now we have a woman of color running for president. Hallelujah! Let's do this!
DEMOCRACY IS ON THE BALLOT VOTE on a lovely old house.
Farmer's Market is as lively and wonderful as ever. It seems like the prices have gone down somewhat. Maybe only a little and on some products but on some things. Eggs are about half the price of what they are at the Farmer's Market in the Bay Area.

This has been a whacky entry week. For part of it, it felt like we were upside down and just now getting our feet under us. This smorgasbord of a blog will mean that tomorrow and throughout the week, the posts will be shorter and about that day.

Have a wonderful evening!

Sending oodles of love,

Tawnia
