And on the third day, River took them to Boothbay.
.
.
First up was our very favorite drive along the shore in East Boothbay.
.
.
Rocky beaches, the Atlantic ocean, stunning waterfront homes …
.
.
And the private stone chapel we’ve always admired was open to visitors.
.
.
We’d never been inside so we had to take a peek.
.
.
Religious places aren’t really my thing, but this one was unique.
.
.
And you can’t beat the view out the front door.

D.’s husband T. fell in love with Maine right after this family picture was taken.
.
.
I believe his exact words were, “North Carolina can suck it, I’m moving to Maine.”
.
.
It’s not hard to understand the sentiment.
.
.
The Maine coast is pretty damn amazing if I do say so myself.
.
.
We spent the morning leisurely strolling and took lots of photos.
.
.
Then headed for a fabulous seafood lunch down at the harbor.
.
.
A little shopping followed.
.
.
A walk across the footbridge…
.
.
More pictures.
.
.
And I was beginning to wonder if D. would be able to get her husband back on the plane at the end of the week.
.
.
A flight of beer for the adults at a local brewery.
.
.
And a flight of ice cream for the peanut at a local creamery.
.
.
A quick stop at the Revolutionary War Fort Edgecomb…
.
.
Where G. really wanted to go in but couldn’t.
.
.
And then we called it a day.
.
River's world..... 
The man has that right!

A flight of ice cream!?!?! Okay a flight of beer too but dang that was one heck of a day y’all spent with your visitors. I’m sure they loved it, of course her husband was very impressed with Maine. I’m sure anyone would be, those sights are gorgeous.

Religious places aren’t my thing either, but that chapel is stunning on the inside.

I like the stone chapel, it’s quietly charming. I’m glad you got to see the inside and took photos to share. The ice cream flight looks fun, too.
