This past weekend was dominated by Hurricane Irene news, but Saturday in Maine was beautiful. A lot of friends from my Crafty Biz meet-up group were participating in the Portland Picnic<\/a> so I headed up north for the day.<\/p>\n

This photo booth had the coolest props ever! Look at those masks!<\/p>\n

I also saw Jennifer Judd-McGee of Swallowfield<\/a> fame. It was a beautiful day, a fantastic selection of artwork, the crowds were out, and everyone was talking about the pending hurricane and enjoying the event. After a few hours, I left the park and walked to meet-up with my husband and son. I saw this weather vane along the way-<\/p>\n

Before leaving town, we took Peter out for a great Mexican dinner at Zapoteca<\/a>– Yum! Great day all around. We left Portland in the early evening and headed back to Boston. We hit the first rain right at the New Hampshire line and a steady downpour once we were back in Massachusetts. We had rain, we had wind, but where I live, we came out mostly unscathed. We are lucky and thankful.<\/p>\n

This oak leaf was on the porch this morning. The thing is, I have no idea where there is an oak tree any where near us. Yes, it was windy!<\/p>\n
