The fog & clouds broke just as we got into Bar Harbor at about 9 this morning and were walking to our parade viewing post. I am sunburned on my face & neck! It feels like I haven't been out in the sun in forever (because I haven't!). We had a wonderful day but Emma played out so we decided to head home prior to the fireworks craziness. We walked the Shore Path, visited quite a few shops, had lunch on the pier, ice cream at Ben & Bill's and walked out onto the sand bar and let Emma walk in the ocean for a bit. I'm feeling a bit worn out myself! Will watch Macy's fireworks show (on now) and the Pops at 10.

Amy I am so jealous you are in Maine....but glad for you as well !!
Dave and I used to spend every 4th in Maine at his parents summer home in Cooks Corners right on the bay, but the last 2 years, they have not been well enough to travel up there for the summer, and it's just not the same without them there. So we both are at work on our day off to let those with families go to fireworks and go away....
