East Coast Trip: Talking and Eating
My favorite part of our Maine trips, by far, is the time we spend eating and talking. There is nothing better than sitting around with family and shooting the breeze while munching on goodies:
- Breakfast time with bright sun through the windows
- Making s'mores on a grill (second time this trip!)
- Liby still loving the s'mores
- The kids get their own eating time since there are so many of them
- Night time chatting with everybody
- Relaxing in Will and Shelley's cabin after grilling out
East Coast Trip: Coastal Exploring
A lot of the fun to be found in Maine is along the shore. Tidal pools, piles of seaweed, big rocks, and lots a small sea creatures make for a great environment for adults and kids alike to explore:
- Shannon and Libby next to a tidal pool
- A happy couple, on the rocks
- Gorgeous clear day with sunshine through the trees
- One of many baby crabs that we found among the rocks and seaweed
- Libby showing off her periwinkle collection
- Cooper, our Maine Man
East Coast Trip: Maine (finally!)
A rainbow, as seen from our "beach" (aka pile of rocks and seaweed), welcomed us to Maine:
East Coast Trip: Red’s Eats Lobster Shack
On our drive up through Maine we stopped at Red's Eats, a delicious lobster shack in Wiscasset. They pile the lobster so high you can't see the grilled bun. The monster pile of meat is direct from the lobster - both butter and mayonnaise is served on the side, so you can mix as you see fit.
- Two delicious lobster rolls
- Red's Eats – the best damn lobster rolls I have ever had
- Self-taken family portrait while we waited in line
- Our second order – another lobster roll and fried full-belly clams
East Coast Trip: Debbie and Peter’s House
Every year we invade the welcoming home of Debbie and Peter. They are always such wonderful hosts, making sure everyone is well fed and entertained.
- Making s'mores on the outdoor grill (they were great!)
- Welcome to House of Cooper – what can I get you?
- Libby discovered – and LOVED – climbing trees this vacation
