I'd barely finished unpacking and cleaning up my garden when it was time to make the run to the airport because guess what? Florence has arrived!!  She will take care of the girls while I jet off to Michigan to be with my Dad.  We went straight for a lobster roll at the Portland icon, DeMillos Floating Restaurant and don't you wish you were here!

Here she is being greeted by Sophie and Lu, deleriously happy to see her, on another fine soft day, as they say in Ireland (means it's raining.)
And, even though the blackflies aren't biting yet, Flo couldn't wait to get into her gear and get out in the woods with the dogs.
Yesterday, OMG we were so fabulously decadent and we had so much fun. We went to King Eider's, best pub in the universe if you ask yours truly. It was the last Sunday for music so we were front and center. The guys were in fine form.
First things first, we ordered a dozen oysters and you have never had better, I don't care what you say. These select oysters from the Damariscotta are the BEST! We slurped them down and then ordered a pile of steamers. I'd show you a picture of those too but they required both hands to eat so . . . 
We're drinking a toast to Sue, down south in the heat and humidity, because drinks were on her. We miss you, Sue! Wish you were here!
 And finally, a peek at the sunset at the end of this rainy day.
