Bitter Sweet Sea
Being back where I’ve been conjures many thoughts, and a few nice memories. The other Portland. Wondering how it is I got here, and if I’ve learned anything along the way. My Belknap house is still there. The same coat of warm gray and faded yellow trim, but someone’s built a treehouse out back. What a damn good idea. I may have more to say about this, but now off to enjoy the rugged coast and trying sun.

- After five relaxing days on Martha’s Vineyard, we took the ferry back to Woods Hole, MA and started north.
- Hooray! I’ve landed at Plymouth Rock! Now I just need to make friends with the natives, settle down and procreate.
- Spent a couple days in Portland, Maine, and walked around the Back Cove with Wes. A route I used to run everyday when I lived here.
- Went to a minor league hockey playoff game between the Portland Pirates and the Connecticut Whalers.
