And here is yet another sunset at our favorite sunset observing spot, Ferry Beach. Sunsets are kind of tricky to catch over the water in Maine. Ferry Beach has the sunset, but its also really protected so Claire has no problem wading in. Its usually quiet, too. Not much more you can ask for in a beach.
We went to Freeport recently to see The Big Bad Voodoo Daddy in concert (at the L.L. Bean Summer Concert Series), and we had a picnic dinner at the Portland Headlight which was very relaxing. Claire started summer camp today (just two mornings a week), and she will start tennis camp (also two mornings a week) tomorrow. She wanted to be in tennis camp badly enough that she offered to pay for it herself. We told her we thought we could handle the $30 tuition, and she was so thankful it was as if Mike and I had won Parents of the Year Awards. She's been counting down the days since. I feel like I'm at the very top of the roller coaster right now. From here on, I expect summer to fly by.
I've also been spending time experimenting with different glazing techniques, and that has been going really well. Its so much fun to open the lid of the kiln after a firing.
