Around 11:30, Wendy, Lydia and I decided to go for a hike at Sabattus Mountain which was about a 15 minute drive from here. The weather is amazing - it got to 82 today! Starting up the trail was actually fairly steep, but we took our time and enjoyed the beautiful scenery.
Lydia and I used to teach together and it was great fun hiking with her for the first time!
Wendy is the hiking expert!
Who is missing in this picture? Tobey!!! I miss you!
The colors are changing more every day.
It was cool to see all of the moss on the ground as we made our way down the mountain.
As we were enjoying the view, another couple came to the top and asked where we three sisters were from! We chuckled because from the back we all had the same hair color so we had them take our picture!
We went by the Pleasant Mountain ski area and they were nice enough to have a pulloff on the road so we could snap a picture.
After the hike, we went to Bridgton to shop at the Corn Shop. What a cute shop with LOADS of Maine souvenirs! We all got a little something before heading back to Sue's.
We had fresh lobster for dinner tonight which Sue cooked for us - nine live lobsters into the pot to steam. Sue's sister, Lynn, joined us and helped guide us in the proper way to break the lobsters apart and get the meat out.

We also took time to get a group photo of the seven book club members that made the trip to Maine.
As the sun went down, Sue lit the fire and we enjoyed sitting outside sharing stories and looking at the stars before coming in to play some card games and share lots of laughs. Tomorrow the weather is supposed to be beautiful again so we are planning to spend some time on the lake, so until then, goodnight!
