fall in new england part 2








More from our trip up the coast.  We took Jackson across the bridge into Maine and went on a hike.  We stumbled upon this picturesque country estate of a shipping merchant named Jonathan Hamilton.  It was situated on a bluff and we were the only ones there except for two runners who came through.  The grounds were well-kept and beautiful.  I asked Jeff to snap a few shots of this old black house on the grounds.  {Mental note:  Paint house black in next life. It's so cool.}

Jackson had so much fun crawling around in the grass.  We felt like we were Mr. and Mrs. Hamilton hanging out on our front lawn and enjoying the view...then we woke up and went to eat some lobster;)

I am finally able to put up some pics of our recent trip up to New England.  The weather was crisp and fresh.  I had forgotten what fall felt like with our crazy weather here.  I have to say that New England is just so darn charming!  We caught an impromptu rag-tag marching band dressed in costumes playing in the middle of the town square. Jackson loved it.  We took a hike, saw some leaves changing and just strolled around.  It was relaxing.  On our last day, we took Jackson to the playground and watched the boats going by.  I adore that last pic.
