8-20-07 VERMONT: We all trekked to Southwest Harbor, ME to Ken and Carol’s beautiful house on the beach for a family bonding experience. All the Frankel-Rosenberg-Fagin-Quint’s got on quite well with the Weg-Shaus’s and we have the pictures to prove it. We hiked, sailed, motored, climbed on rocks, ate, drank [some of us], swam [some of us], hot-tubbed, admired the gardens, played with the dog, got sun burnt and rain soaked. I’m sure the lobster population will recover. Our house gift was a bag of our tomatoes, which almost disappeared by the end of the weekend. Everyone went some place else on Sunday morning, the third day, to the relief, I imagine, of the weary hosts.
Meanwhile, back in Thetford, we got 0.4 inches of rain along with a bunch of branches down in the yard. Every drop is welcome.
New blooms: more lingularia, more sedum, more lilies.
