Today, we did a lot of errands. Augusta is only about 15 miles away, but the drive is very rural and beautiful. We went to the post office, the copy shop, Staples, Radio Shack, and the lumber store. We arrived at Kents Hill in time to accompany Christelle to Max’s school. He was entrenched in the Book Fair room, and we could hardly tear him away. Back at Kents Hill, Tom did some work on their satellite reception. Christelle cooked up some apple slices from apples they picked in an orchard across the road. Brian ran in from his last class, and changed quickly to go off and run with the cross-country students. Max took off to play with friends on the “turf.” This truly is a great environment for Brian, Christelle, and Max.

Back at the campsite, Tom and I sat at the picnic table, watching loons with the binoculars, and making some phone calls to good friends back home. The loons produce a most interesting song……………it’s hard to describe, but it’s something like………. oooooowooowooowahhhhhhhooooow. Anyway, the loons know how to say it.
