Fall visit from Barbara and Vi
We've just waved goodbye to mum and granny, who spent about 11 days here and enjoyed glorious sunshine and beautiful fall colours. Granny is now 89 and continues to amaze Boston Logan's immigration officers each time she arrives.
While they were here we went to the Maine Botanical Gardens at Boothbay (again). This time we went all the way down to the water then hiked back up the Waterfall Trail, we meditated in the Zen garden, and we had the most delicious lunch in the cafe.
We took a trip to Crescent Beach the following weekend - we all made it down to the beach including granny, who sat with her hat on her head to stop it getting sunburnt. The children did gymnastics, and Mark stripped down to his undies and waded in the sea.
Other than that we ate out a lot, including breakfast at Bintliffs. While we were there one of the cars got towed, so it was an expensive breakfast! We had steaks and ribs at Ruby Tuesday, and as usual granny ate absolutely everything that was put in front of her.
Now they're gone we miss them... I'll post some photos.

My friend Ken
I just wanted to link to this, my friend/colleague Ken's blog. It's what's been on my mind most over the last week, and it puts everything else in life into perspective.

Get well Ken.
