York Beach
Look at all these idiots! It's 65 degrees, cloudy, and breezy. And here they all are at the beach. They think they're having fun! We're in polartech. We must be wimps.

Another rainy morning. So I decided it would be a good time to get my hair cut. Drove into south Portland and did just that and picked up a few groceries. Starting to clear. We finally decided to drive into old Portland and check out the port. Called a friend of ours, Lance, who also spends the winter in the Keys (lives in Portland) to see if he was available to meet us for a drink. He actually was, so we met him in old Portland at Gritty McDuff’s. When we got there and found a parking place it was absolutely pouring buckets and we had to walk a few blocks. Got absolutely soaked by the time we got to the restaurant. Had a few drinks and some dinner. Was great seeing Lance and chatting with him for a while. Walked around old town a little bit and bought some candy at a shop there (like we need it) and then headed back to our parking spot. It’s still sprinkling. Got back and turned on the heat. Hung up my jacket to try and dry it out. We’re thinking about going along on the mail boat tomorrow which delivers mail to a bunch of islands off of Portland. Only if it’s not raining or threatening rain!
