Kendall. I worked construction for 6 weeks at the Waterville Airport one spring and stayed in a cabin at The Old Ochard Inn. The Apple Blossum Festival was great. I recall one eve... I had taken a young lady out on the Inn's second floor rooftop deck for a "private waltz" (yes, an actual waltz was playing in the lounge... get yer mind out of the gutter... it's crowded down here). It was sunset and the deck was level with the tops of the trees of the "Old Orchard" which was huge and it was in full bloom. The pink sunset glowing on the blossums, the air heavy with the the scent of the blossums, the sight of the pollen rising from the trees. A perfect moment. A perfect kiss.

And, she was from Lunenburg. The Fisherman's Museum tour in Lunenberg was amazing. Her grandfather gave us a THREE hour tour out of season. He was in his late 70's and his stories of fishing by schooner and dory were incredible. The islands in the area are beautiful. Her old man would take us touring around them in his punt. He made his own ale and it was powerful and tastey.

Shoulda married that girl but I was 20 years old and still had a lot of stupid things to do.
