    I think that is the name of the mascot for the University of Maine. I remember a number of times their baseball team made regional playoffs.

    Now with the sports out of the way. :)

    As a lot of you know we are in Maine for a month, just outside Acadia National Park.

    A lot of you also know my wife, Gator Jeanne, writes a blog. Well the last three blogs are about Maine, complete with pictures. Some we took and some she got elsewhere to use on her blog.

    If you might be interested the name of her blog is Backyard Neighbor

    Terry, it is blog thing. They share food and recipes and link to the sponsoring tha event.

    Sat is Pink Sat, they have share something pink and is sponsored by Jeanne's friend who got her into blogging.

    Monday is Blue Monday, thing blue.

    I imagine Jeanne will turn a lot of her blogs into something about our trip. I help her take pictures.

    By the Jeanne says hello and also wants to make sure it is clear she took all of the garden photos, I was banished to the truck with the dog who was not allowed in the garden.

    I passed your comments on to Jeanne, she will be posting more. I'm not sure about tomorrow but several times next week for sure.

    Mr and Mrs JO'Co, when are you going to be in Jacksonville to see your granddaughter play volleyball?

    Jeanne has posted two more days about out trip. Limited as far as pictures, but the first one is a Church she photographed and the second about an interesting carved wood stature of a seafaring man.

    If interested its the same link as the first post above. She does a blog everyday and will most likely be about Maine for most of the time we are here. Yesterday was a stay at home day for us and I'm not sure about today, we need to get a couple of keys made to replace a set we lost to our camper and I am awaiting a phone call.

    Thank goodness for cell phones.

    Have a great day.
