Geodes
We still had some geodes left from December. Hitting things hard with a hammer can be quite therapeutic.

Matilda
The hype is right. Matilda was an excellent show. And now Simon is convinced he wants to be a performer.

We Climb Ropes
This morning we conquered a ropes course. Or at least some of a ropes course. Simon was very brave, strong, and persistent. And a little bit crazy. It was a great time and we want to do it again next year.
Last Day In Maine
We took full advantage of our last day here and went sailing. Simon even got to steer the boat.
We also looked for wild life.

What Is Maine Famous For?
I'm not sure the photo is good enough to see the beautiful low bush blueberries. We went to Beech Hill today- an organic blueberry farm and preserve. We watched people harvesting too. Will remembers doing it as a teen. Hard work.
Riley Camp
Simon is finishing up his second camp today. We wanted everyone to see how pretty the campus is. Truly bucolic.

Beer!
I went on a beer tasting tour in Portland. We went to Alagash and 3 other very small breweries in Maine.

Hiking Together Is Fun
Will and I took an awesome hike together- 7.5 miles and a bunch of up and down. It was really fun and lovely. The views were great but so were the long stretches of quiet trail.

Lobster Festival (Or Place With Rides)
Yesterday we went to the lobster festival in Rockland. It was mostly fun. Simon brought a friend who would only ride one ride. Simon worked hard to make the best of it.
Saying Hi
Look right in the center path of this pic. A peninsula that juts out is where Simon's camp is so Mama waves hello from her hike.

Half A Vacation
Equals-
Several thorn scratches from hiking.
A huge bruise from falling hiking.
Uncountable mosquito bites.
Lots of glitter that won't come out of hair.
Two pairs of sea water and mud ruined shoes.
One inexplicable rash.
The inability to lift arms over the head from kayaking.
We are having great time!
(Really.)
