A beautiful day in Acadia National Park

Here we (Carolyn and Thea) are atop Cadillac Mountain at the end of a long, lovely day in Acadia National Park. (It was very windy up there.) What a beautiful park. I wish I could go there every summer!

Jordan Pond and POPOVERS !

We arrived at Jordan Pond House at 11:15, and the line was out the door. Happily, we discovered they had not yet opened. When the doors opened at 11:30 we were immediately seated on the lawn. We enjoyed soup and popovers while gazing at the beautiful view. Sigh, life is good!

We (really just me, Carolyn took a little convincing) were somewhat fatigued after our two hour walk around the Pond, so what did we do? We stopped at the Jordan Pond House for popovers again, to refresh us! This time it was just lemonade and popovers. We were revived.
