Two weeks ago I was able to visit Portland, Maine for the first time.
Even on a day when the Northeast was locked tight in winter’s icy grasp, this quaint seaside town sparkled like a jewel.
I was completely charmed by this family’s Christmas decorations…
We enjoyed a delicious lunch at the Portland Pie Company…
before heading out to the Portland Head Lighthouse
Apparently Henry Wadsworth Longfellow spent hours sitting at the lighthouse staring out at the sea for writing inspiration. Since my son is an aspiring novelist, he may want to spend some time here too.
This scene made me long for summer. 🙂
Once the snow melts and the sun shines warm, we are definitely heading back here!
Happy Friday everyone!
