Recap of trip to Maine

So I haven't posted anything on my blog in a couple days. The last post was from Thursday. The trip to Maine was good. Emily and I went up to visit Andy. He is working at a summer camp in Maine for a good part of the summer. (I found out from him that it costs $10,000 to send your kid there for seven weeks. Wow, that's really expensive.) We headed up there in the early evening. It took less time to get to Portland Maine than we had expected, so that was good.

We stayed at a Comfort Inn. Which we weren't even aware of until we got to it. (Since Andy hadn't informed as of the name of it.) It was all good though because there was a Chili's right next door. So close that we could walk there. After checking in and bringing our stuff to the room, we went next door to Chili's. Chili's was good. I got boneless buffalo wings. We split dessert. One thing that I do think was sort of funny about going out to eat there was when we got our bill. Emily and I had ordered the same things and yet my bill was a penny more than hers. I am not quite sure how that worked out. Maybe it had something to do with tax?

Then we left and decided to go make a quick trip to Hannafords. It was only a couple of minutes away from the motel. It was nice how close together everything was. Then we got back to the motel and hung out there for the night. Where we went on Facebook, watched tv, played Mad Libs, hung out, etc.

The next day we got up packed our stuff, had breakfast, and checked out. Our next destination was Freeport. There was a chance that we might go to the beach, but then we decided not to. Plus Andy wanted to show us around Freeport. We ended up spending a good part of the morning and early afternoon there. It was a cool place. With lots of shops all around most of which were outlets. It was fun to just go walk around and look in stores.

We had lunch at some old tavern place in the area. That was pretty good. I was determined to go to a beading store that I had seen on the map. We made it there eventually. I didn't end up buying anything there. The problem was I really didn't know what I wanted to make or anything. After walking around some more, we ended up leaving Freeport and going back to the motel.

We had all gone together in Andy's jeep and so on the way back he took the top off and everything. So it was extremely windy. But it was still very fun. Cruising down the highway with the tunes blasting and wind blowing in our hair, ahh what fun. Shortly after we got back to the motel, we left to go home.

Overall, the trip was a lot of fun. I was glad that it was able to work out. I wish that I had taken more pictures, oh well it is what it is.

Emily- She is ready for some fun.


Andy- Looking very happy.


Me- Looking miserable. It was a lot of fun though.

Finally Thursday!!

So it is finally Thursday!! The day that I have been waiting for. Emily and I are heading to Maine in a little while. We are going to go up and meet Andy, who has been working at a summer camp. We are going to stay over night at a hotel and hang out. Tomorrow will be fun too because we might go to the beach while we're up there. It will be nice to hang out with both of them. I haven't seen Andy in a really long time.

It will be nice to get away, even if it's just for a day. I need to remember to take my camera and take pictures. Oh, and videos are always fun too. That way I can eventually make another slideshow in like 5 years. Plus it's just nice to be able to take lots of pictures of all the fun times. That way you can look back on them and smile.

The place is somewhere in Portland. I am not sure of the name. No one told me, but Emily has the address so all is good. The cost for staying there for one night is only $109. So that's not too bad. About $36 a piece. Plus it has a pool and hot tub.

I'm sure it will be fun. So I am going to go pack now. Which shouldn't take long since it's only for like a day.

Beach Day

Today was a good day. I went to the beach with Mike, Chris, Emily, and Eric. That was a lot of fun. We all ended up getting sunburned and that was not fun. After the beach, we went to Mike and Chris's house for cookies and pizza. Then we watched tv.

Tomorrow I am going to my cousin's bridal shower. That should be fun. I would write more but I am going to bed soon and there is only 4 minutes until midnight. So this will have to be the end for today... Short and too the point.

Cutting it close...

Today was a good day. In the morning I went to yard sales with my mom. We ended up stopping at quite a few, but did not find anything too exciting.

In the afternoon I went to Emily's house. Which was nice because I had not hung out with her for awhile. She made me chili and we hung out and stuff. Then we went to Brooke's house to go swimming and Cat and other people were there.

After we hung out at Brooke's we went to the mall for an hour. Why does the mall close so early? There is like nothing to do after 9:00 on a Saturday night... Besides going out to eat. So it was decided that we hit up Burger King. It was nice to get to hang out with the three of them because we haven't all hung out in awhile. We are always able to have a good time. If only Erin had been there then it would have been complete.

After Burger King, Emily came over. We just hung out and watched videos on youtube, talked, and took pictures on my computer. It was still fun though. Don't get me wrong. I am always able to have fun with my best friend. We can always make each other laugh. We also watched a bunch of videos that I had on my computer from back in the day. These videos definitely captured many good times. There will be more good times in the future I am sure.

It is almost midnight, so I have to get this posted quick. Otherwise I will have missed a day of posting. So now I am off to go on Facebook for a bit, then read or watch a movie... Who knows. Good night. I will leave with a few pictures from our random photo shoot.
