Mosaic Monday May Moments in Maine

The Area Code is 207 if you're interested, LOL!

This past weekend hubby and I managed to sneak in a short 24 hr. trip to Maine.  Below are some photos from our weekend, I hope you enjoy them.  It was more of a mental health trip, lots going on with mom.  We had a nice time, the weather was pretty good for the most part, except for a 30 minute downpour on Saturday afternoon shortly after we arrived, but it cleared up and gave us a beautiful Sunday!  Then it was off to see mom!







More Daffies, they waited for me and 
were in full bloom this weekend!

    Oh.. it has been years since I have been to Maine! We used to always come home with a really cool birdhouse...
    I miss it!
    Thanks for the beautiful post and memories it brought!

    That is a serious amount of daffodils! They are beautiful. I'm wishing my lunch had been lobster. Nancy

    I have a thing for barns and love that barn shot with the American flag on the side:)

    Again, beautiful, beautiful daffodils! Glad to hear you had such a nice trip; I find that such short trips still manage to get one's head on vacation mode and really help to recharge the mental batteries.

    Wow, Maine sure is a beautiful place. The lobster's look so delicious. Nothing beats a fresh Maine lobster. My favorite photo night have to be the shed with all the lobster buoys on the back.

    Loved the photos of your weekend trip to Maine. That's a beautiful state, that's for sure. Could you possibly look into making the photos bigger? They would look even nicer, all blown up! Thanks so much for sharing your sweet weekend! Susan

    The lobsters really got me!! Maine is the only state on the eastern coast that I have not spent time in...I will have to remedy that! Thank you for such lovely pictures.

    Mr G liked what I'd done thankfully - now to paint the other one to match!
    Its often best to present the men with a fait accompli dont you think?!!!

    I love visiitng Maine! The wild seacoast is so picturesque and the Portland light is among my favorite lighthouses. I could eat lobster every day ..if only it was more affordable..lol The optican sign was so funny!

    Mental health trips are very important. I've always wanted to go to Maine. Your photographs have not disillusioned me. Particularly like the lobster optician.

    Thanks for your great comments and useful additional tips on my post!
    Hope the fireplace project is going well - good for you tackling it yourself!
    Oh and with the help of Duke too!
    Logan is a great help to, whatever I do - especialy the washing - if anything gets dropped on the way to the machine he picks it up and follows me!
    Yes I did cover the chair, but need to finish it off with braid to cover the staples or add decorative studs!Another UFO!!
