Maine 2021

September 12, 2021 by Steve 4 Comments

Ogunquit & Kennebunk, Maine August 2021 After eight or so years of vacationing on Cape Cod, I convinced Hoang that it was time to mix it up. Why not downeast Maine? Less driving time and I could find essentially the same experience. She (very) reluctantly agreed and that's how we ended up in the center of Ogunquit. … [Read more...]

But as I've settled on the major sections of this website, I realized I have a few outlying subjects that simply never fit in elsewhere. Granted, many of these … [Read more...]
