My visit to Maine was fabulous. Whether it was a wooded walk to a private beach -- first photograph below -- or blissfully watching the sunset from the sun porch -- second photograph below -- I had a wonderful visit. The only problem was blogging, or lack of blogging. I was for the most part off the grid and blogger was highly uncooperative. There's at least one more Maine post to come with additional pictures of the land and seascape.
Besides visiting, sitting on the porch and enjoying the view, eating was a prime activity. There were several lobster treats, but also a trip to the very fabulous Chase's Daily in Belfast, Maine. Family run and focused on vegetables, I had one of the best meals of the summer there. During the summer season there is always a line to be seated, but after Labor Day it wasn't as crowded when we arrived. However, by one o'clock every table was taken.
There were beautifully displayed vegetables and flowers for sale in the back of the restaurant.
Maine is slipping back into memory now that I'm home. It's back to laundry, grocery shopping and doing my daily walking. I neglected the latter while I was in Maine and it's time to enjoy the almost autumn days outdoors.
Sadness continues and my heart is in Mexico City and Puerto Rico tonight. Prayers for safety and recovery for both areas.
As ever, thanks for visiting and take good care.

Maine is such a beautiful state and I have never met anyone who visited who did not enjoy themselves.
The soup looks delicious and I am going to look for the recipe on line. It is quickly getting to soup weather.
What a wonderful trip you had. I can imagine the view from the porch as you saw it was wonderful. Good food, especially seafood, would be a delight for me. Getting back to normal is good too. The leaves are beginning to fall here and busy days are coming for me.
Wish I could go to Maine some day it is on my bucket list if you will. I am so worried for those people with the hurricanes again - you might get it up there.
What a lovely meal you had. Maine is picture perfect.
I loved spending time in Maine. It's beautiful and the air is soooooo refreshing.
