More From Maine

Beth Ann Chiles/ Travel/ 18 Comments/ 563

Our trip to the eastern most part of Maine proved to be a beautiful journey in nature. We always look for parks or preserves where we can walk and hike and if there is a beach it is even better. Add in a lighthouse or Continue reading →

Welcome to Maine

Beth Ann Chiles/ Travel/ 24 Comments/ 562

Our vacation in Maine started out like the above picture. Rain, rain, and more rain. As we flew into Bangor we experienced torrential downpours. This was definitely NOT the time to have soft sided luggage like I had. Trust me, I was damp for a Continue reading →

The Good Girl

I loved this book! It had my interest from the very first page and was my "airplane" book on a recent trip. Author Mary Kubica created believable and interesting characters that the reader learned to identify with and care about. Mi...

Another great book by John Green. I have become a huge fan of John Green since my reading of A Fault in our Stars and this book was another that did not disappoint me at all. It was a story of a child prodigy, a lot of anagrams, and a b...
