Our last summer in Maine and we made the most of it! Hiking Jewel Falls
Fourth of July! We spent the day swimming and paddle boating with our good friend Jennie, and then met up with the Scott family for fireworks on the Eastern Prom. Portland knows how to celebrate!
Frequenting all our favorite beaches and parks once again! Willard and the Falmouth ES playgrounds, the simple Kiwanis splash pad, and of course, Kettle Cove!
Our trip to visit Gretchin and see Popham fort and state park. We crossed to the island at low tide and found lots of hermit crabs!
Trips to the Wildlife park, walks around Old Port, and trip to New Hampshire to visit Aunt Gretchin for the last time. :(
We even managed to have a little fun in our tiny temporary apartment.
When July ended, so did our lease, and with ten days left of Riley's rotation, we had to find yet another place to crash for those days before making our trek west. We're so grateful for our generous friends who let us stay in their beautiful home while they were out of town. Tender mercies! We even made fast-friends with their neighbors! So grateful for the good people who we've been fortunate enough to cross paths with!
Maine is the most beautiful place, and I'm so grateful we had these experiences there. Our children are the luckiest to have these storybook memories! We could not have ended our New England adventure on a better note.
Next up....cross-country road trip!
