A Tulip Burst



  We have had some nice sunny weather this week and in one day the Tulips Burst out in such Beautiful colors. I think they were as anxious to see the snow melt as all Mainers were. We have official put our No Vacancy sign out last week. This was a great sight to see in April. Speaking of signs, we got a new Log Cabin Sign on the front lawn. It looks like the old one but nice shiny new paint with many layers of gold leaf.
Sue also spent many hours this week scraping and staining all the room  decks. This isn't an easy chore, trying to find days that the rooms are not rented and then having the weather cooperate. I could not believe how well they turned out. They look like all brand new decks. We also had the Pool Company out this week to get the pool ready for the Summer but I think it may be several weeks before we can get Matt to turn the heater on. Going in wouldn't be bad but coming out wouldn't be very nice.

Are you looking for an adventure??? I had one last week. Terrence and I took the Amtrack Downeaster train to NH and went to the Children's Museum. Did you realize it now runs from Brunswick? You can even go shopping in Freeport or Portland or  visit Old Orchard Beach or go all the way to Boston and back in one day. We had a great time, quick peaceful and comfortable. Plus Terrence would want me to mention that it has Wi Fi so you can play games or watch movies on an IPad.

Happy Birthday tomorrow to Laura and our special room guest Carl.

With Peace,
Alicia
