Or… Bean & Smitty
On Tuesday, day 54 of summer, the fog came on little cat feet.
The little islands off the shore of the beach completely disappeared in the fog bank.
I still went out for my morning walk, but it was with a bit of a chill as I made my way through the mist.
And I dreamed about “if only…” as I walked.
Deciding it wasn’t going to be beach-sitting weather that day, I suggested a trip to Freeport to the family, home of the famous L.L. Bean flagship store.
Size 410 boot!
“The Final Charge” – two male moose reconstructed from the remains of a set of locked antlers.
I have no idea why this exists, but it does, and I of course took a picture.
We enjoyed lunch and souvenir shopping and ice cream eating while in Freeport.
On Wednesday, day 55 of summer, most of New England, and I think other parts of the Northeast as well, were deluged by a huge rain storm. The rain started in the morning, not really letting up much throughout the day.
That made Wednesday our day to enjoy some time at Smitty’s Cinema – a place we discovered a few years ago and have enjoyed going to ever since.
At Smitty’s you can enjoy pub style food, served by a waitress to your table in the theater, where you sit in comfortable high backed chairs.
My family’s choice of movie was “Guardians of the Galaxy”. I’m not a follower of Marvel but this was a fun movie and a great way to spend a rainy afternoon.
The rain continued and the wind howled and thunder rumbled well into the night. I will show you the results of the storm in my next blog post.
