Sue will be thrilled - she MUST get back here and see these Maine pics!

 :)

Yes, I really hope she does get to see them.  It's been too long since I've heard from her.

One of the many stops/places in Maine where Sue took us to.

We loved Acadia!

Ah, I'm glad to know you got to see Acadia.  I had forgotten that you had been there.

wonderful set of additions, Debs.  Loved the fireplace one, made me think of the coming winter.  ;)

Thanks, Chuck.  I'm glad you liked the fireplace one.  I wasn't sure whether to post it because it was so dark, but it does show how cozy the fireplace made the room in the morning.

One time I even turned the fireplace on when I woke up early, and got back in bed to watch it until it was time to get up.  Very pleasant!

Beautiful pictures, Debbie. :) I've been to Acadia and Bar Harbor, Rockport and Camden--Maine is a lovely place to relax. Got to plan to go back sometime soon. :)
Time is too slow for those who wait, too swift for those who fear, too long for those who grieve, too short for those who rejoice, but for those who love – time is eternity.

Thanks, Jenny.  I hope you do make it back there soon.

Boothbay Harbor is also very relaxing because you can walk from the hotels to the shopping and eating places downtown across that bridge, at your own pace.  It probably wasn't as pretty as Bar Harbor, but I enjoyed the location.

Some photos from last week's trip to Christchurch.
I stopped for coffee at the Waitaki River Bridge.The rivers come out of glacier and are wide, braided streams so the bridges are long. This is not the longest. It is further north at Rakaia.

Walking above Akaroa Harbour. As you can see the weather was not the best
