So, we are back in KC now but I wanted to post pictures we took from our last day in Maine.
We went to see one of the lighthouses in Portland and checked out the Atlantic Ocean. Besides being beautiful, it was REALLY windy and much colder than inland Maine where we had been staying previously.
But it was Matt's first time seeing the Atlantic Ocean, so that was exciting. I thought it was so awesome to think that we were standing at the edge of the continent. What a beautiful country this is.
We also stopped at the world headquarters of L.L. Bean in Freeport Maine. We took a picture next to the giant boot outside the builidng.
Do any of you remember these shoes growing up. We called them "duck shoes" when I was a kid. Well, they still make them and apparently people still wear them in Maine.
I also took a picture of this house to give you an idea of what the houses look like in Maine. Many of them were very beautiful and pretty much all of them had this same colonial look to them and were built over a hundred years ago. We looked and looked for the typical suburban area that we are so used to seeing in the Midwest, but never found it in Auburn. In fact, people looked at us funny when we asked them, are there any "newer" houses around?
For those wanting to know about the job...we are still mulling over the decision. The dental practice was very nice and very busy, but we are a little uneasy about some of the contract details. So... no decision to report today. I am glad we made the trip, though. If you have never been to Maine, I would recommend a visit...Maybe wait till summer, though. : )
