Mini Vacation

21 September 2011


Last Monday I went to the beach (York, Maine. ) with my Mother and Sister for couples of day’s… 
LOVE THE BEACH…..and the shopping of course.

The Union Bluff Hotel was built in the late 1800’s. Back then, guests arrived by horse drawn carriage and steam train with their trunks packed for a month long stay. You still got the feeling of the old-world charm.


(The original Union Bluff Hotel was one of the last old wooden buildings in York Beach. In February 1987 the original building was destroyed by fire. It was rebuilt to resemble the original building that has occupied this site since the 1800's. The "new" Union Bluff Hotel opened in June 1989.)

Some pictures to look at when the winter will be here LOL…


Sunflowers

15 September 2011

While the vibrant, strong sunflower is a recognized worldwide for its beauty, it is also an important source of food.
Sunflower oil is a valued and healthy vegetable oil and sunflower seeds are enjoyed as a healthy, tasty snack and nutritious ingredient to many foods.
Mine are the slowest in the world they decide to open in the middle of September LOL.......
