Our final stop on the Island was an old friend’s farm.
.

.
We got the grand tour and enjoyed hearing his vision for a self sustaining future going forward.

.
This is a Katahdin sheep.
.

.
They don’t require sheering and shed their own coats.
.

.
During the long days of lockdown my friend built a Covid Cab…
Boredom is a terrible thing.
🤣
.

.
We’re examining bees here.
.

.
After meeting the scarecrow it was off to the barn…
.

.
Built entirely from wood, the old fashioned way.
.

.
The $200k price tag made me gasp, but it was the contents that made my husband’s dreams come true.
.

.
I knew the minute we walked in we’d be missing the 4:00 boat.
.

.
It’s a tool museum you see…
.

.
And my husband was in rusty metal heaven.
.

.
He and my old friend have a lot in common.
.

.
Did they talk?
.

.
Did they ever.
😊
.

.
My husband would have been happy to spend all night there, but we had a boat to catch.

What a wonderful outing for your tiny visitor. She’ll have amazing memories of her time in your corner of Maine. 💟

Well, here is my takeaway: based on these pictures, I am beginning to form an idea for the stereotypical Maine Man. Somewhere between Paul Bunyan, Johnny Appleseed, and Daniel Boone.

Your hubby didn’t try to buy the horrid covid cab??

It wasn’t for sale. But you’re right, I’m surprised he didn’t try.

A shearless, self-shedding sheep? Sweet!

That sheep looks uncomfortable, but maybe he’s just used to it. I also love looking at the bees. The farm/barn are just lovely and you should not have let your husband in there!
