Jumpin' at the Woodside

Monday is a perfect day to stroll in the woods. We are off again and so we slept late and then took a ride over the state border into Maine. We arrived in Wells, which is a cute seaside town, just before lunch and in time to have some "chowdah" at Billy's Chowder House right on the harbor.

We had camped in Wells many years ago and places looked familiar. Today we drove north to the Rachel Carson National Wildlife Refuge. We walked their one mile trail through the woods and enjoyed the scenery and peacefulness. Lots of trees and the ground was covered with ferns and other shrubs.

We only saw one bird the entire day and I believe it is an Eastern Phoebe.

Afterwards we drove home through the town of Cornish and stopped at a fabulous butcher shop. Jeff got some steaks and pork chops. Now we had dinner and are watching "Silver Linings Playbook" on TV.
