Some major things have happened in the last 8 months or so, and posting to this blog became increasingly difficult. But, I'm going to take another crack at it. (confession - i was never good at keeping up with it even when i was 'keeping up with it so we'll see!) It's just that I have such interesting things to share with you all (my 4 followers) that it would be a crying shame to make you wait a second longer. ;o)
So - major things:
- I moved BACK to Machias! Which - is the very reason keeping up with this blog became so difficult. I took a new (old) job back at UMM and I am so busy every second of every day that I forget to eat and pee, and things like that. BUT - it's a totally 'good' busy, not a 'i-want-to-jab-my-eyeballs-out-every-second' type of busy, so all is well on that front.
- I don't have the internet at home! Shocking, I know. This makes it incredibly difficult to post at convenient times, but I'm working on that and I'm going to try to carve out some blog-time at least once a week.
- That might be it. I also might be slightly dramatic, but the new job, big move home, so-busy-every-second thing has been overwhelming! Hollah!
Last night I picked up a good friend as I was arriving back in town from being in Hampden for the weekend and we went to watch the sunset at the end of the road in Roque Bluffs. It was amazing, see for yourself:

Since I've been back home I've had this completely overwhelming awareness of just how flipping gorgeous this place is and how lucky I am that not only can I call this 'home', but I see it every single day driving TO WORK. Like, how many people see this on their way to work?! So, so lucky. Some things about living in such a remote place are hard on people, and Downeast Maine has it's fair share of problems...but, this isn't one of them. I mean, doesn't looking at these pictures just make you feel AWESOME?!
And.......one more for good measure:
