A Very Special Commendation
11 September 2019, Amerika Serikat ⋅ ⛅ 34 °C
Once we got to security at the airport Brian and I were separated as I had TSA pre-check and he did not. As I was going through the security scanner, it beeped. LOUD! I came thru and made a comment about how I had forgotten to take off my fitness tracker. Perhaps that was what caused the machine to beep. The TSA agents said no that I had randomly been selected to have my electronics checked further. I told her I felt SO special and that maybe I should get a sticker. Well, one of the TSA agents walked over and gave me one.

As I was exiting the plane in Atlanta, one of the flight attendants said he didn’t realize that we had an air marshal on board. I had to tell him I was a JUNIOR marshal. Well, actually, I was a junior TSA officer. Apparently my imposing presence (must be from the 30 years in the classroom) led him to that conclusion. I did not bother to correct this assumption.Baca selengkapnya

Timberwind
11 September 2019, Amerika Serikat ⋅ ⛅ 23 °C
After lingering for a while over breakfast at our B&B, we headed out to make the most of our last afternoon in Portland. First we hit the water on Timberland, a schooner built in 1931.

The Portland Schooner Company describes the outing as “A two-hour sail on Casco Bay, the perfect way to experience the beauty of the Maine coast, complete with lighthouses, seals, seabirds and the rugged coastline”

It was a beautiful trip. Nobody narrating but made themselves available for questions. Enjoyed the wind in our face and the sound of the sails flapping in the breeze.

There was also a little jaw flapping by a gal named Michele from Long Island, NY, who befriended us. Her partner Marty stayed back on the cruise ship to read. (He is a librarian.) the woman loves cruising and has been on 156 cruises since 1981. 😳Baca selengkapnya

The Portland Observatory was built in 1807 by Captain Lemuel Moody to serve as a communication station for Portland Harbor. Portland Observatory was one of the earliest marine signal stations in the United States, and it is the last known to survive. The Observatory's location on Munjoy Hill gave it a clear view of vessels approaching Portland Harbor. The Observatory contributed to the prosperity of Portland Harbor as a vital center of maritime commerce during the "Golden Age of Sail."Baca selengkapnya

Governor Baxter was a well-known dog lover and breeder of Irish setters. When his dogs (14 of them) and his horse (named Jerry Roan) passed away, they were all buried at Mackworth Island. This area of the island was protected when the island was turned into a state park so you can still visit the sites of Governor Baxter's beloved pets when you visit Mackworth Island.Baca selengkapnya

Macworth Island State Park
10 September 2019, Amerika Serikat ⋅ ☀️ 16 °C
A walk recommended by our innkeeper. Glorious scenery, dogs galore and an incredibly beautiful day. ❤️

Mackworth,Island is an island of approximately 100 acres, connected to Falmouth by a causeway at the mouth of the Presumpscot River. This proximity to Portland and the Presumpscot accounts for the unique blend of human and natural history that has shaped Mackworth Island. While human influence has greatly altered the natural environment, there is much to be enjoyed and preserved. The 1.25 mile trail that encircles the island takes about an hour to complete at a leisurely pace and visitors are treated to stunning views of Casco Bay and Portland. Along the way, stop to watch boats and ferries motor though the Atlantic waters while seagulls, osprey and shorebirds glide overhead as they search for food.

In 1946, Governor Percival Proctor Baxter donated Mackworth Island to the State of Maine to be used for state public purposes and "as a sanctuary for wild beasts and birds."

Morrill Mansion B&B
9 September 2019, Amerika Serikat ⋅ ⛅ 17 °C
En route to Portland we realized that we had booked a hotel for the next two nights in Portland, OREGON instead of Maine. Eeeeeeeek!

After canceling our reservation (with a little sweet talking on Brian’s part to waive any penalty for it being at such notice), we scrambled to find a spot.

Brian ended up finding an opening in a lovely B&B the Morrill Mansion. Since we were booking at the last minute we got a reduced rate, the “baked bean” special. Why was it given the moniker “baked bean” you ask ? Well as it turns out this
1800's era Italianate mansion was once the private home of Charles Morrill, the co-founder of B&M beans.

Now that we’ve settled in we’re going to head out and take a nice walk to a recommended dinner spot.Baca selengkapnya

"We are a traditional Italian restaurant serving hand-made pasta, but our menu also features modern culinary influences from Spain, France and the surrounding Mediterranean countries. Our dining room is warm & intimate, but our spacious bar is one of the most popular in the area. We are both traditional & experimental; loud & quiet; fun & romantic."Baca selengkapnya

Cozy and intimate restaurant on the resort property. Best meal yet. Complete with an amuse bouche of breast with a palette cleansing berry sorbet and a chocolate pudding which was actually ganache on a graham cracker crust. To say we rolled out was an understatement.

They had a menu with wine pairings suggested. Also recommended was a Willamette Valley Winery Pinot Noir which was delicious.

Also, since it was my birthday dinner, they took a photo of the two of us, put it on a Bretton Arms Inn card which all the staff, including the chef, had signed. Nice touch!
