We made our way to Camp Wool in Kennebunkport. What a glorious place. So much wool - so many patterns - too much to see that I went back twice! I was only allowed to take a picture of the front of the store so can't show you any of the goodies inside.

Their Boston Cremes are to die for. Bought enough to pig out for a couple of days! After going to the same place in Maine for years we finally discovered the best fresh fish place down the road in Pine Point, Maine - Bayley's Lobster Pound.  There is even a little eating area that juts out into the water. Unfortunately this was the one and only cloudy day that we had - but it must be a pretty spot when it is sunny and clear. Right across the street is a park with a beach. Great place to eat your lobster roll for an impromptu picnic.  Can't believe we did not find this place before this year and it is only about a 10 minute drive to it. Needless to say we were there every night after we discovered it. The first night I made fresh local haddock in coating of Japanese bread crumbs. So deeelicious!  After all the eating, I did manage to have the energy to finish my Coastal Girls rug which I will post this week once I bind it and make it more presentable. I am glad I got it done and love the way the sky came together. And just a few more pictures of the southern Maine coast that I was able to save...
Some pictures of the southern coast of Maine....       Now 3 months to wait before we are off to PEI for a holiday in the cottage by the sea :) Hope to get lots of hooking done then! Have a great evening.. Joni |
Such beautiful scenery! Maine is a great place to relax. We used to visit northern Maine every summer when I was a child. The pattern you chose to hook is going to be a fun one! Can't wait to see your progress!
ReplyDeleteI remember many a lobster roll as a kid growing up in RI. The Maine coast reminds me of the Oregon coast where I now live. I often wonder the reason behind 'no pictures'--what big secret do they think you might steal by taking a picture. To me--it's free advertising for them.
ReplyDeleteI live on the coast of Maine, just a couple hours north of where you were! Glad you had a good time while here, next time come a bit further up the coast. there's more to discover.
ReplyDeleteAnd, my most recent mat is the Notforgotten Farm bee. It's so cute!
I enjoy your blog.
