Dear Boston

I miss you!! It seems like a lifetime ago since I walked your streets....


and looked at your beautiful architecture.



I loved holding the starfish at the aquarium....


and eating FABULOUS food in the North End.



I also loved the view from my downtown hotel room....


I also appreciate the generous Bell man that gave us restaurant ideas and awesome walking directions. Oh, Boston, how I love thee. I enjoyed every moment of the wonderful vacation you gave to me. Since your weather was too windy on the day I was supposed to go watching for whales... I will definitely be returning, since that cruise line gave us a free whale watch tour!!! :)

Go Sox!

Vacation - Maine

Maine is beautiful!!! I would love to go back some day when the leaves are changing colors. We flew into Boston on Saturday morning and drove up to Maine, via New Hampshire. In Maine we drove up the coast, driving through cute little towns (like Kennebunkport), stopping at harbors, lighthouses, a couple of beaches, looking at beautiful architecture, and.... for me - eating the most seafood I have in my life. I ate seafood the first three days... surprisingly, I liked it! :) We drove through Portland and Bangor... just taking it all in.


Where the Portland Seadogs play:


We saw a lot of water....






a few lighthouses...



hung out on the beach...





ahhhh... I love vacation. :) More about Boston tomorrow!!

Not me! Monday

Not Me! Monday was created by MckMama. Check her blog to see what she is NOT up to and to get started!

Well, in all seriousness... I did NOT do much this week. LOL

I did NOT spend the last week relaxing on vacation and it was NOT wonderful in the least. I did NOT fall in love with Boston and am NOT already planning my return!

I am NOT ready to be done reading "Numbers" ... or the Old Testament for that matter. ;)

I am NOT absolutely ecstatic over fall TV. I hate summer reruns!! At this very moment, I'm watching the season premiere of One Tree Hill - yeah!!

What have you NOT done this week?

Back to life

Ugh. I hate when vacation ends. The last week has been fabulous. A couple days in Maine (which is BEAUTIFUL) and a couple days in Boston (which I absolutely fell in love with)... ahhhhh. Rest and relaxation.

There was minor drama, but nothing we couldn't semi-deal with. One day this week I will do a full blog about vacation. For now ~ just letting you know, I've returned.

I hope everyone had a great Labor Day weekend!!!
