The weather was terrific - sunny and comfortable. It was small group again this year, two gals arrived on Friday. The afternoon was spent walking the beach and catching up. We enjoyed company, wine and the sunset. I love all the golds and browns of the beach in the evening (a contrast from all the blue and white of the day).

As I passed the mermaid, I mentioned that she was very well endowed. I was told "gets more votes that way." I had to laugh!
We enjoyed the events at the green, including a dunk tank (dunk your selectman or teacher!) and the craft fair. We got to check out the new library (been open since November, but it was new to us) and spent some time on my aunt's porch enjoying a mug of tea and people watching. I got to catch up with friends and family - it was a lovely afternoon.
Sunday was busy. Three of us packed in a trip to our favorite bakery, the spice shop, watched the Windmill Weekend parade, then finished our errands in Orleans. Whew!
Happy to be at the pastry shop! Then the parade: a mermaid and shark; two old-time beachgoers |
I'm glad we could share this time together. I look forward to doing it again!
Gosh, that does sound like a GREAT weekend!
