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!

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!

In Bar Harbor!

        We are staying at a really cool circular house.  Really tired after the drive, but late last night we did find a hotel to stay at.  We ended up in Worcester, Massachusetts! Today, now, a nice circular shaped house!  Anyway sorry for the small post but this will be all for now, I will post again if we do something fun tomorrow!

What Can You Get Away With in an Apple Store?

        Here's a funny video of comedian Mark Malkoff from YouTubes My Damn Channel, testing really how much you can get away with in an Apple Store.  With all the videos of people dancing and singing in the Apple Stores the real question is what can't you do in an Apple Store!

Ethan - Fisherman Extraordinaire!

        Here's a quote from my good friend Ethan, an awesome 8-year old, describing his fishing expedition in to the ocean and what he caught!  "The fishing trip went good.  I caught a one foot long sea bass.  We went to the middle of the ocean.  We used sand shark, squid and eel for bait.  We walked on the boardwalk at Wildwood a lot.  I had spaghetti for lunch and shrimp and crab for dinner.  Nobody caught any sharks but a lot of flounder and sea bass." - Way to go Ethan, Look at what you caught!
