A Long Way From Home

May was a busy month this year.  Aside from two graduations, we took a trip to see Bonita in New Hampshire.  I find that I have putting too much pressure on myself to get all the photos and all the story out for things like graduations and these visits.  
Suffice it to say, we found New Hampshire very different from home and very delightful.  
Therefore, this blog is just a few photos, well maybe not so few, of getting there and one day trip.

and...here we are!!



Stonewall Kitchen, where we bought wild Maine blueberry jam. 








Nubble Lighthouse



This is borrowed from Wikipedia
The Cape Neddick Ligh is a lighthouse in Cape Neddick, York, Maine.  In 1874 Congress Appropriated $15,000 to build a light station at the "Nubble" and in 1879 construction began.  Cape Neddick Light Station was dedicated by the U.S. Lighthouse Service and put into use in 1879.  It is still in use today.  


We saw some people cross over with this cable car.








Marginal Way in Ogunquit, Maine





We can't go to Maine without having lobster.




Or ice cream with blueberries.


Jim rather reluctantly put his feet in the Atlantic.












It was pretty cold to be letting the waves wash over our feet, but as a flatlander, 
I wanted to make the most of my opportunity.  
We don't see much water where I'm from.

Graduation Celebration

It's quite a thing when two daughters graduate from college.  
It's even more of a thing when they graduate the same year, and the same weekend.  
Really it made it easier for all of us.  Only one trip for my parents.  Only one cake. Only one party. 
It was a lovely time for all of us to get together and celebrate a milestone in their lives.  
Congratulations, Girls!!
