This was so much fun. I hadn't been to any kind of Track Meet in years. The Spies twins are Juniors in High School. Alex was my confirmand when he was in the 8th grade and I have kept an eye on his doings ever since. Kate is the journalist and has quite a few articles published in the local paper.
This bridge is only one of 7 left in the state of Maine and it has not been used for vehicle traffic in years since a new one was built just upstream from this one. I had fun taking pictures from various angles. What a wonderful birthday I had!
These four pages are all of Screw Auger Falls in northwestern Maine. I had never been there so of course neither had Homer. Off we went for my birthday day away while Mary stayed with Dad. WE had a wonderful day!
That's the name of the orchid plant. It is gorgeous and the picture can't do it justice. Putting it next to the door for the photo shows how big it is.
