Cadillac Mtn. & Sand Beach

        On the Cadillac mtn. now it's 3:50! Great view of Bar Harbor up here.  Hope the picture looks good!

        Also in Acadia we went to Sand Beach and it was great.  Funny name for a beach huh! All beaches are sandy!  We did a little hike on this path off the beach and we almost got lost going the wrong way.  And again great views!

Sand Beach from the beginning of the hike.

BlueBerry Scones

        My mom made yummy blueberry scones with fresh blueberries!  Unfortunately they were store bought, but later on we hope to go blueberry picking for some fresh Maine blueberries!  And then we can enjoy something blueberry knowing they were just picked.

        We found the the recipe in the rental house guest book that someone had written!  If you are bored and have blueberries and some other ingredients here's the recipe, make some and leave a comment if you liked it, we did!

Wild Maine Blueberry Scones Recipe:

Combine 2 c flour, 5T sugar, 1T baking powder, 1/2t salt. Cut in 6T butter. And add 1/2 c blueberries + 2/3 c half n half into dough.  Form a round loaf + cut into 8 sections.  Brush w/ half n half + sprinkle w/ sugar. Bake on greased + floured baking sheet for 12-15 minutes @ 425*. Yummy!
