I bought some new shoes this week! First, I bought the blue Keens (on sale!) for walking and kayaking in Maine. Then, I spotted these ALegria's on sale at the neighborhood shoe emporium. My last purchase, today, had to do with the bench and dog attack in WC in May.....

FTLOC...the puss is in das boot! I kept thinking it was a bad sprain and that the swelling and pain would go away. Two months later, I finally saw an ortho PA and had extensive xrays, they slapped das boot on me and I return for an MRI tomorrow. Oh, joy...we leave for Maine on Friday! :roll: Guess, I'll sit around in the crisp air, enjoy the view and eat my fill of lobster!

I just saw this thread- OMG! That's a helluva boot! So was your suitcase lighter- did you only have to pack one of each pair of shoes?

I hadn't thought about this, but I bet you're right!!!! :floor:

This was a protest for health care now down the streets of Old Port. I was in a cute shop buying stuff, Mr. K was outside watching. The salesgirl and I jumped outside to see if the voices were friendly or scary. Here is the transcript:

Head Bullhorn Protestor: What do we want?
Minions: HEALTH CARE!
HBP: When do want it?
Minions: NOW!
Mr. Kitty: Who's going to pay for it? :shock:
Miss Kitty: (grabbing Mr. K by the arm) Get inside, NOW!

Good one!!

Time for more photos. I don't know why the 1800 pound chocolate moose isn't in this batch.

photo 1...The Bush compound on Walker's Point in Kennebunkport. There are much prettier homes around, but man, the views they have! Loved the Texas flag flying and the obligatory black suburbans for the SS.

Kennebunkport was quaint, but a touristy trap. Glad we did not stay there.

photo 2...pretty flowers abound here. So do...pucking mosquitos!!!! :yikes:

I am covered in bites!

photo3....another beautiful sunset viewed off the "cocktail" porch of the Black Point Inn. My new limit is one cocktail. :blink:

swgb...Mr. Kitty took a pic of me with the chocolate moose, but it was too dark for the shellphone.

Thanks again for being my photo biatch! :wub:

We are off to the north to stay in Camden today. I promised Mermy I would stop off in Freeport to visit a few stores at the outlet. (sorry, SHELLY!) We plan to do kayaking and sailing in Camden. No telling what stories will evolve from that! ;-)

WCW...glad you found the "blog". I love sharing! :wave:

I jsut realized I never told the story of das boot and the Cliff Walk.

I almost keeled Mr. K for taking me on a hike on the cliffs (think climbing on rocks and steep inclines on a cliff!) The views were incredible when I quit cussing long enough to see them. At the end, was Winslow Homer's studio, which is being renovated and is not open until 2012.

the cliffs!

Birthday gull, I woke up this morning to an unusual cool morning fog...I have my own little piece of Maine in Indiana...thanks for sending it out our way! And I am sure Shelly will give you special dispensation today when you hit Freeport. :clap:

(And before I forget: Kennebunkport was born a tourist trap.)
