View we woke up to this morning....

Now THAT'S a real estate sign!

Outcome of Bella

Bella was adopted by a family closer to her rescuer in Massachusetts. They had hoped she would go with a Yorkie sister or brother but a photo on their website looks like she went to a two poodle home.

Not blaming Ava but......... our home visit was longgggggggg and Ava basically barked the entire time. Oh well :-)))) maybe intentional. I know we would have loved Bella and Ava would have taught her how to bark at home visitors but not to be. I hope her home is fantastic and she is a happy little girl.

Updated photo from the rescue blog. so cute.

My favorite beings....

Chef Carmen Whirlwind Trip

Picked up Chef Carmen Gonzalez at PWM last night and then to Danforth - drinks at Havana South and dinner at Sonny's in Portland. This morning we got up and headed over to 156 Pickett in South Portland for the best bagel sandwiches, on planet, recommended to Carmen by Andrew Knowlton at Bon Appetit. THEN to Boothbay to look over the restaurant facility at Smuggler's Cove and THEN to Lobsterman's Wharf for Carmen's greatly anticipated lobster roll and blueberry pie. Now back in Bar Harobr. FULL day but love to throw ideas around with equally crazy, yet successful people :-) and it was a GORGEOUS day on top of this - Alyssa - who was with us the whole time - got this great shot from dock. WHILE she was trying to keep up and write down everything Carmen said.... nearly impossible :-) GREAT day!

Seal Harbor

Bar Harbor was CHAOTIC today, three cruise ships in, so Ev, Av and I decided to get out of town. Seal Harbor was gorgeous! though SO windy!

Smugglers' Lupine

So pretty, you wouldn't even have noticed these before Mom and Dad landscaped the big ledge and anchor.

Pretty...

Birthday flowers from my leetle seester.

Mom's Birthday

Dad took the WHOLE family to Bar Harbor Inn tonight for dinner for Mom's birthday - very fun, the kids even behaved well. As did I :-) Pic is afterward with the nieces and nephew in the gazebo at the INN.
