This past weekend we went to our 'ol stomping grounds, Brunswick Maine. Well more accurately we stayed on Bailey's Island in a nice house with a bunch of old friends. Of course we bought the dogs and now our other main stay, the road bikes. Friday's drive up was pretty mellow, and Saturday explained why. We woke up Saturday to thunderstorms and no power. We also had no water as the house was set up on a well/pump system. There seemed to be a few moments where it would let up, but then we would hear a rumble. Megan got dressed while I decided to get another cup of coffee.
During the day, we roamed around the Bowdoin campus and spent a bunch of money at the Bowdoin bookstore. We also stopped at our favorite sandwich shop, Wild Oats. Saturday night was spent reliving the "good 'ol days" with a trip to Cooks Lobster House then some drinking games.
Thankfully Sunday we didn't wake up with the "good 'ol" hangover
or any more thunder clouds. We lounged outside the house, let the dogs run for a bit and then headed to Freeport to ride with some friends. Once again we saw some ominous clouds. Once again we thanked our lucky stars, as they disappeared, and we were able to get our ride in. Thanks to Kelsey and Pete for showing us around. Here's a pic from Winslow State Park with about 5 miles to go.
