Pumpkin Carving

Fall

Omg it's shaped like a pumpkin. How could I not get it?

It had been a while so I went for a walk in the city forest. I love when the leaves change color. 

Today I went to the Common Ground Fair in Unity, ME. It's a country fair. I bought seeds, bulbs and pumpkins. :) I also had to get some piecone (pie in a cone). 

 

I've been trying canning. Tonight I attempted dilly beans. Who knows if they will come out ok. I used beans and dill from the garden. 

Today we went to Treworgy Orchard and had fun doing the corn maze. I love going every year. We will have to go back and pick a pumpkin. 

Isn't my niece adorable?

This weekend we visited the Desert of Maine. Yes we have a desert here and it naturally occurred. It may have been though because of potato farming and sheep but still cool to see. 

I got to hang out with my family today. It was awesome. :) 

I made breakfast this morning. I found scrapple at my local grocery store so I had to try it. I'm not sure if I cooked it how it's normally prepared but it was good. Even my boyfriend ate it. I can cross it off my life list. I had heard about it years ago and wanted to try it. 

Today we went to Boothbay Harbor for a lobster/clam bake that my boyfriend's work was having. We went on a ferry and ate lobster at Cabbage island.

I walked down on the rocks despite wearing a skirt.

Today my boyfriend and I went on a long road trip north to the beginning of Route 1 in Fort Kent, ME. We got off 95 at Houlton and followed Route 1. It was a fun trip to check out that part of Maine. 

Pluto is still at the Houlton visitor center as part of the Maine Solar System Model.

I had some poutine at Rock's diner.
