Vacation time
Oct 15 2008 14:45

Well, just as I feared, our vacation took its toll on my scale!  I guess three pounds is not too big a price to pay for a wonderful tour of New England with all its fall finery, but it does take some of the fun out of things!  We spent a couple of days traveling through Pennsylvania, New York, Connecticut...even a bit of New Hampshire...enroute to Cape Cod.  Stayed four days in Wellfleet, hiking and exploring the beaches, enjoying a room in a venerable old inn.  Then a quick one-day trip up the Interstate to Maine and Acadia National Park, our favorite.  We found lodgings in Southwest Harbor, just outside the park.  Each morning, we were treated to sunrise over the harbor just outside the sliding doors of our motel room.  Beautiful!  Spent another four days here, then off to the Poconos to meet our niece, Lynn, and her daughter, Julia.  Two days there and then headed home.  Glad to be here, and determined to shed those three pounds (and nine more) ASAP.  Added a vacation photo to my gallery.
