One of the best parts of being in Maine is eating birthday cake. This year, two rockin' ice-cream cakes and one extra special "chocolate chip cookie" cake (a mound of cookies with a candle on top) were graciously shared by the birthday kids with the drooling grown-ups. Here is Ms. Allie, who has grown so tall and lovely, with her 7 candles.
The second best part is hanging out with family. Although an important part of the family passed away earlier this year, Robert G. Dreves, AKA, Grampy or Flat Grampy. His great presence can be felt in the cabin, on the lake and - basically, he's the reason why we all vacation there. This time together allowed us to celebrate his life and legacy, and say goodbye. On a lighter note, I'll never forget the time he tried to give Emerson some of his Manhattan cocktail. Here's Grampy caught in the act.
The third best part is the lobster! (Does it appear that I enjoy eating a little much?)
