Thread Name: Alaska Mike's Daughter in Maine
Subject: RE: Alaska Mike's Daughter in Maine
Lori is tucked away in her bed. Tami and Bandit just left. The day started with a tour of local lighthouses with Seamus in tow. Lori did meet a man in Maine - a Japanese tourist who needed a photographer to capture him, his friends and a lighthouse.
Seamus had some brief swims while Lori visited Museum Gift Shops and trekked out to Spring Point Lighthouse.
Then back home to drop off the puppy, brush our teeth and off to Portsmouth. We had a wonderful time joining with the shanty singers aboard a tall ship whose name I have forgotten. Lunch and dinner at the Press Room. Lori did a bit more shopping and needs a week in Portsmouth to hit all the boutiques. She was well received by the Portsmouth crowd. All send greetings to Tawmmie and Mike. She met Barry Finn, Linn, Tom, Jeri, Danny Spooner, Bruce McIntyre, Peter and Joann Sousa and about a dozen others I am forgetting. She really fit in.
We stood on line for about a half hour before getting into the dock area and were entertained by three veterans from a local home all recovering from head injuries - ask Lori about Janis Joplin, Jim Morrison and Jimi Hendrix as well as Attila the Hun and the Hindenburg. I got a little nervous when everyone started baring their tattoos. But the management stepped in and gave us all pirate rings and stick on tattoos so all remained modestly dressed.
Tomorrow: breakfast with Kendall and Jacqui, Old Port shopping, and I am not sure what else although Lori still hasn't had a lobster.
