Springli's Visit

Last weekend Springli was home to pick up her new car. Well, not exactly new, but new for her. It had become apparent that it was time to retire the Daewoo. and our mechanic, Jay, found her a great deal on a Honda Accord. We didn't take a picture of it, but suffice it to say it is a 4 door sedan that looks very much like many of the government cars driving around DC, except for her MOONROOF!

Anyway, she flew up on Friday night and didn't leave until Sunday morning, so we had a nice visit.

On Sataurday we went to lunch at Flatbread's in Portland, a neat restaurant on the waterfront. We then took a walk around the Old Port and came across this schooner. It was a bright, sunny day, but still chilly, and obviously pretty windy.

A visit home in early spring wouldn't be complete without a dish of cottage cheese and chives from the garden. Springli thoroughly enjoyed it! We've had a typical Maine spring so far....some 60 degree days, but still alot of high 40 and low 50 degree ones as well. Hope is in the air though, the daffodils and forsythia have bloomed, and the rhododendron should bloom momentarily.
