First, we love Asta Darling, who is a marvelous fashion historian. And we love fancy dresses. So we HAD to share this absolute confection of a dress with everyone.

Now I want one to wear for the holidays!

If you're visiting Maine, I encourage you to learn about our beautiful landscape through the stories of the long-time inhabitants, the Wabanaki.

These lands are sacred places, and we are blessed to know them -- and it's important to meet them in a different way: "carrying names and stories that remain part of the living history of our Wabanaki people."

We are not the only ones! Here's a collection of some others who love it too.

I can't say it was a beautiful day, but its a nice one, even with the weather.

Fortunately this morning our walking tour dodged most of the rain. I love seeing the city through their eyes. Our city is a gem. The Peirce Park memorial, the brick buildings, and many pretty Downtown Bangor gardens are treasures.

Other visitors went by coach to the King house, the Maine Air Museum, and the Cole Land Transportation Museum.

Back at the dock, we chat with folks as they wait to board the ship again.

"You have a really lovely community," said one guest.

"Thank you," I said. "We really do."

It's such a privilege to share it.

Looking through a bin to find a book, my husband also found a stack of OMNI magazines from the early 90s.

This ad was in one of them.

I read a LOT of these, so maybe this was a suburban suggestion that stuck.

When we're not out bustling about (ha ha!) we spend our spring volunteering at the Old Town Museum, preparing for the summer season.

The museum opened yesterday, May 28th, and will be open 11am-3pm on Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays throughout the summer.
