We had another stunningly beautiful morning that was the
calmest yet – the sea was like glass and we had the easiest entry to the ferry
yet. Fred and Tony had rowed the dinghy out to meet Ethan with our stuff which
wasn’t much this time and Jane and Tony just had a few things. The dinghy was
left on the mooring for Ken to use later in the day and Ethan brought the boat
in closer to the sand beach so the Wednesday warriors could get off with their
things and Jane and I could climb aboard in the dead calm cove. No bruising to
the body this time with the gentle climb in. We had a pleasant ride into Popham
and Pepper was on board to cuddle with. Tony and I walked back to the church to
get the cars while Jane and Fred waited with our stuff. Off we went to town
stopping to drop off the recyclables and onto Cyndy’s to get water, dump trash
and say hello to Cyndy and Hinkley. We continued on to Mae’s Café for a big
breakfast. I left a bit early to get my haircut at Hair Creation by Jordan who
cut it so well in June. Fred stayed with Jane and Tony to finish their
breakfasts and I met everyone back in Bath in the parking lot behind Reny’s.
Jane, Tony and I went over to Halcyon yarns
to do a little shopping while Fred ran some errands. Jane got some angora yarn
for booties and I got a pretty yarn called painted desert to make a shawl. I
also got a totally matching shawl pin. I had purchased a bunch of yarn in May
and it was sitting in the car all this time. I went to mail all my yarn home
that I had gotten there but they said they would only mail the yarn I got that
day. WTF? What difference does it make when I got it – I did get it all from
them and spent over $400! I sent them an email
complaint about their treatment of a good customer
– will see what they say if anything. We then left our car over at Shaw’s and
piled into Jane and Tony’s car and went over to Brunswick to run a few errands
and finally took a drive over to Bailey Island for lunch at Cooks Lobster House
even though we weren’t real hungry. Since the restaurant has been there since 1958, Fred probably eat there as a kid while visiting friends on Baily Island. We had a nice lunch together and a pleasant
ride back through the lovely Maine countryside. We arrived at Shaw’s and said
our goodbyes, they left to head for home and we headed for grocery shopping. We
didn’t need much since we are winding down our stay and need to eat up what we
have on hand which is plenty. People brought us a bunch of wine towards the end
here so we didn’t have to buy that.
We
stopped at the Bath post office to mail all my yarn and a few other things back
home in a big box. We stopped back at Cyndy’s to pick up the water cube and some
of my refrigerated

medication, which arrived the day before. I quick hug and
kiss to Hinkley is always required. One more stop at Percy’s store to pick up
some ice cream and more post cards. I almost sold completely the last bunch at
a $20.
So I got 20 more since they were
needed and will finish out our time here. The postcards we had never sold well.
Got on the ferry with Ethan and away we went back home to Seguin. It was still
so calm and easy jumping off the boat and retrieving our few things. The 3
workers got back on and away they went.
We were beat from our long day and relaxed a bit in the gorgeous quiet
afternoon. We did have two groups in the afternoon one couple came about 7:30
pm with their cute springer spaniel. I was on sunset bench reading a book but
welcomed them and gave them a nice sunset tour.
After they left it was getting dark and I made a salad and threw a pizza
in the oven for dinner. I was quite exhausted at this point since I didn’t get
a nap and took a nap at around 9 pm. I awoke after Fallon and Myers and did
some emails before crawling into bed around 2 pm.
Too tired to dream.
