what a wonderful, beautiful, place maine is!
we spent a long weekend in kennebunk, maine for a cousin's wedding
in between the wedding festivities we took in all the sights
here are my men in kennebunkport
and here we are!
behind us is walker point...does that ring a bell?
President and Mrs. Bush (senior) have a home here
and what a home it is (this picture is just a segment of their home)
really interesting to see it...and to see the Texas flag flying...knowing they are there this weekend!
their impact, through centuries, on kennebunkport is astounding...lots of plaques with the name "walker" or "bush" on them...
inspiring...to see years of caretaking of a place by generations of one family
on sunday morning, i ditched the weak coffee of our hotel and walked across the street to the grocery store...
a quaint new england mom and pop place...breakfast counter...groceries...lots of pictures of bush family members with the owner on the wall
and lo and behold, there stands barbara bush herself

everyone acted as if she were just a regular customer
and i didn't want to go ga-ga all over but i did want to say something to her
so i said...are you ready?
"are you in line?"
and there you have it. my interaction with barbara bush :)
we all have such wonderful memories from our weekend jaunt to maine
a beautiful place, indeed
