Day 147 – Thank you to everyone who has been working so hard leading up to this election! And thanks to those of you for working today at the polls, making phone calls, and going door-to-door. Good Luck, JEN!
It started raining around midnight last night. At 7 a.m. it was raining, windy, and 50 degrees. It rained all day & we stayed inside all day. Caught up with some things, took a nap, played some Backgammon (with Rob winning all the games), etc.. The high was 52 degrees; it was a bit windy. The girls do enjoy it when we stay inside with them all day.

TED C. – HAPPY BIRTHDAY! We hope you get a trip to Oak Island for your birthday!
Day 146 – Cloudy, 32 degrees this morning at 7 a.m. The 40-lb. propane tank ran out of fuel early this morning. It was cold in the RV when I got up; the cats were huddled together. Rob was out at the Harbor View pad. When he got back, he disconnected the tank & put it in the car. We went to Lubec to run errands & get the tank refilled.

Day 145 – We made it. We didn’t have to leave. Happy days are here again. Moved the clocks back an hour this morning for daylight savings time. Everyone gets an extra hour. YAAAA! 41 degrees this morning at 6:45 a.m. and sunny. The power was on; no major outages here. It’s still windy, 13 MPH with some gusts, but such an improvement over yesterday & last night.

HAPPY 90th BIRTHDAY, VIRGINIA! WE HOPE YOU HAVE A FANTASTIC DAY!
Day 144 – The heavy rain continued, the temperature didn’t drop during the night. 58 degrees at 7 a.m. We’re trying to figure out whether we should leave before the heavy winds arrive, not to go home yet because we don’t have time to pack everything up, drain the hoses & pipes, etc., but to go somewhere with less trees for the night & tomorrow.

Day 143 – It rained steadily all day. A little windy, the worst of the wind is supposed to be tomorrow night. It’s forecasted to have heavier sustained winds than the last storm that brought down a couple of trees. Oh, goody. 48 degrees at 7:30 this morning; a high of 57 degrees today.

Day 142 – Rain last night, the low was 41 degrees. By 8:30 this morning, it was 50 degrees, sunny & breezy. Rob had his coffee at the Harbor View pad. Today may reach 55 degrees. I figured we may not get a warmer day here this season, so I took my coffee out & sat at the new pad with him. My hands got cold, but otherwise it was great. I am continually amazed at what he’s created. Next, he says, is a pathway from the pad to the lowest point on the cliff, then stairs down to the water. That will have to be next year, though.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, GAYLE. WE HOPE YOU HAD A GREAT DAY!
Day 140 – We looked at the blog this morning to see what we were doing a year ago today. Turned out it was one of our favorite days ever. The California Redwoods. And we thought the trees here were large! Back in Maine, 43 degrees at 8:15 this morning, cloudy & wet from last night’s rain.

Day 139 – Cloudy, 44 degrees, a little wind at 8 a.m. this morning. Rob sat out with his coffee at the new Harbor View pad. He saw three Buffleheads & the Kingfisher. It was nice that it wasn’t so cold & windy this morning. A warming trend would be nice.
