Breathtaking! But it makes me shiver just to look at it! I am in Texas, and we think 45* is cold! Buncha sissies in the winter!

But, Maine sounds awful cold to me ... brrrrrrrrr.

Yes, indeed! I admire the rugged people who live up there and deal with the harsh winters....especially the Nor'easters that come through. Chills me to the bone just thinking about it.

Sending "Fine Day" wishes to you too!

Lovely photo. What strikes me is how blue the ocean and sky looks in all the photos that I see of Maine. And the air looks so clear.

Well, sounds like you would be right at home in Maine. :-)

Glad you enjoyed the post today. It's been awhile since we've toured a new state. Last state we visited was Hawaii with Bille. What a contrast with snowy Maine, huh? LOL

You did a great job with the thread! Thanks.

Thank you. Glad you enjoyed it.

I hope you are having a wonderful Wednesday. :-)

Well, it didn't start out great, but now that my morning dentist visit is behind me, it has gotten a 100% better. ;-)

Happy Wednesday to you too!

When I saw that Chickadee Picture, I Perked right up, because I have Chickadees on my Ranch, and they are so Cute and Friendly!

They are sweet little birds. I don't think I have ever seen Chickadees here in the California Central Valley. Don't know why. If they can live in such diverse places as Texas and Maine, they should be able to live here, I would think.

I Loved your Collage of our Military that I saw on my Nightly Lurkerdoms!

Thanks. The military posters I made for the Ball were a pure pleasure to create. I also met some very interesting FReepers in the process of collecting the photos for them.

Hope you are having a nice day, Kitty Mittens.

I've walked in deep snow, up to my knees. It's not easy. Never tried snowshoes. I assume they keep you from sinking down as far. I imagine it would take a bit of practice walking with those big flat things on your feet.

What is it with photographers and their fixation with "color". My son will spend hours trying to get the skin tone on a portrait just perfect, and I can't tell the difference from the first frame. LOL.

Yeah, a beautiful thread for a beautiful state. It's one of my favorites. Have lots of friends up there and would love to take a vacation and go up to see them. We used to spend a lot of time there, playing at Loring AFB, Barney's Lobster & Bluegrass festival, VFW in Portland, and a campground at York. While up there we would go over into New Brunswick and play the Strawberry Festival. I sent a link to this thread to our friend in Caribou. Hope she has time to check it out. Hi Joyce!
