Yesterday while we were eating lunch at a hot dog place, which was very good, we met a very nice WWII veteran who said he was 89 years old and lives in Rhode Island.
Our wonderful National Parks journey is coming to an end. It has been a very fun and exciting adventure.
Saw my nephews off to school today and then we went with my sister to Perkins Cove in Ogunquit, Maine. We had a beautiful day by the ocean with the waves crashing the shore. I love that sound - it is so relaxing. We saw a bunch of seals frolicking in the surf. Very cute. We saw lots of boats in the harbor and there was a bird house of Sylvester the cat on a building and there was a bird perched outside it. Walked a short distance along the Marginal Way, a trail that goes along the ocean. We ate lunch at Barnacle Billy's and were able to sit outside at the end of October. Maureen and I had a lobster roll and Dave had a crabmeat roll.
We had a wonderful make-your-own Japanese sushi rolls with tuna, shrimp, avocado, rice, cucumber, asparagus, onions. It's nice because you can make it the way you want. Maureen made a tasty apple crisp for dessert.
Spencer was a little under the weather tonight and Tommy, Maureen and I played Bunco (a dice game).
Heading back to Canton tomorrow and will post our thoughts about the journey. It will be hard to get back into a routine but I am so lucky to have been able to travel around this beautiful country to enjoy this trip-of-a-lifetime.
