Maine

I live in Maine, and today I was reminded why I will never venture far. My mother and I decided to spend the day outside, so we went to Two Lights, which is a SMALL beach, mostly rock, that you have a magnificent view of the ocean from. It was my grandmothers favorite spot. We grabbed some seafood and enjoyed the view. When we finished our lunch we went to Fort Williams, which is another beach/old forts on the ocean. I tried to fly my kite, but that didn't go over so well haha, but we had a fun time trying. Then we drove to yet another beach, this one more sandy and swimmer friendly than the others, and we walked looking for sea glass and other things. It was such a beautiful day. It got us out of the house ALL day, and we had a great time together. We also visited my mothers old church. It was a very beautiful church. Inside it was slightly breathtaking. It was sort of a shocker to really enjoy the day with my mom, but we both had a great time. I just love the views you get from Fort Williams. The old forts you see are so cool, as lame as it sounds. It's a wonderful park. Then you can look out on the water..I don't know, just something about the whole scene is a little breath-taking, and I live here...I always joke that tourists should go home because my state is invaded, and hard to enjoy. Now when I think of it, I don't think they should leave, they should see everything. When I was younger, my family did a lot of far away traveling, and I saw some pretty awesome sights. I can only hope that other people can appreciate my state, my home, as much as I do. It's fantastic, weather it be a blizzard out, or a beatiful day. I think it has character!
