Flight Home

*I'm going home, back to the place where I belong, where your love has always been enough for me!*

*Staring out into the night, trying to hide the pain*
*(the pain you feel's a different kind of pain)*

*The miles are getting longer it seems*
*(I'm not running from...)*

Heading to Virginia, flying almost exactly due south, the sun setting in the west and the moon rising in the east, a final bow to the summer. Though more is left, it's not a vacation anymore...
Encore, encore.
*Lyrics from "Home" by Daughtry*

Back to Biddeford Pool

Our Last Day In Maine
So here we are, back at Biddeford Pool with more lobster rolls!
Mom and Aunt Patty enjoying the view (is my horizon line any better in this one, Ben?)

Guardian of the Meal

House on a Hill

*I'm gonna soak up the sun!*

Every creature, big and small, enjoying the beautiful weather.

Rock Climbing!

I just thought this tangle of ropes looked really cool!

Walking Along the Trail Above the Beach
Now that's what I call a beautiful shot!
A Random Lighthouse

Poisonous Berries...beware!

Tugboat and Sailboat Coming In

Gorgeous :)

Garden Picked

August showers bring giant zucchinis (apparently)!

So why is this tomato so small?

All vegetables picked from a different Aunt and Uncle's garden =D

It's a Family Reunion!

Every year a family reunion is held at the lake house. Fortunately, we were in Maine when it was planned this year, so we got to see a bunch of relatives again!

Come on, Lily! Get on that bouncer!

Shelby is probably the absolute cutest kid i've ever met!
(Btw she says I'm her best friend ;-P)

Yay! Lily got on! Partay! =D

Everybody happily playing together

Areal view!

Going for a relaxing boat ride

Kids!

Water fight!!!

Where's Nick going?

Aww the poor guy's bored ;-P

Adults Chat

The Ice Cream Gutter!

Some people are certainly enjoying it ;-P

Jet Ski Attack!

The Dreaded Wall of Water =D

Wipeout!

Wakeboarding!

I just like this pic =D

Surprise!

Nick Sitting on the JetSki

Aren't they cute?

Boy, that was some exhausting party!

Lobster Rolls at Biddeford Pool

Another tradition of ours when we go to Maine is to bring lobster rolls (which, by the way, are absolutely amazing), chips, and soda and have a picnic at a rocky beach called Biddeford Pool.

Looks like we have good weather today!

I just thought this was a cool shot =D

Taking in the peacefulness of the ocean

Uh-oh...looks like a storm's a-coming :-S

Are they brave or are they crazy? (that water's frigid!)

They have GOT to be locals!

"There's a family of ducks out there!"

Fishing for Lobster

Mini Golfing at Pirate's Cove

I think the title is self-explanatory ;-P (however Pirate's Cove is the name of the golf course; the area is called Old Orchard Beach)

Putt it through the cave!!
Pondering the next move...

Score keeper!
Attempting a glimpse at the ocean

Down the chute!

OOO almost holes in one for us! (mine is the blue golf ball)

Final hole!

Hole in two?

Come on, Lily!


The pro on the team (kidding!)

Haha, Nathaniel

You too?
