Getting Started B1

 Day: 5/9 Time: 9:44

Lily and I started our escapade with a meeting. Initially, we realized that some of our plans were not totally plausible so our goal was to refine our schedule. After a few hours of work, we had booked KOA campsites and planned our 3-day adventure in Maine. Looking at the week ahead, we realized we wanted to add more hikes and interviews so that’s exactly what we did. Although making shopping lists and packing lists took longer than expected we also wanted to get outside and enjoy the warm weather. Lily and I took a long walk on the rail trail and always kept our eyes open for blueberries. Although, as the day wore on we headed to Hannafords to buy food for Maine. With that finished, we headed back, prepared our food, and got to work packing. All in all, it was a successful day!

The Causeway at Sunset B2

Day: 5/10 Time: 8:53 Today was filled with more adventurous escapades than the day past. Lily and I filled ourselves with some coffee and hopped on the road this morning. A few hours in we stopped in Ossipee, New Hampshire on a boat launch for some lunch. Then we got on the road again and traveled our way to Pleasant View Blueberry Farm where we ran into a kind farmer who was willing to talk to us about what happens when he’s in the off-season. After another 20-minute drive, we reached Crabtree Farm, another beautiful blueberry farm overlooking some mountains. Later, we made it to our KOA campsite where we met our nice neighbors and set up our sick tent. With the Sebago State Park not far off, Lily and I ventured over to soak up a few rays of sun before heading back to our campsite for dinner.  6 Hours 13/75

The Beginnings of the Book B7

  Day: 5/16 Time: 9:48 The rain blessed Lily and me as we hadn’t planned an excursion today. Instead, I got a little pump in the gym this morning after the daily coffee of course. Eventually, Lily and Cam dropped by Sally to enjoy the nice sunshine on the porch. And…. Lily and I started our book! Yay! We absolutely grinded today. Lots of people came by but we were not willing to be distracted. Our book had our full attention. I think I might have underestimated how long each page will take though. We sketched out everything first, and then we sketched it on watercolor paper, and then we started painting away. Let me tell you the process is exhausting but totally worth it. After an absolutely draining day, Lily and I are excited to see what the future will bless us with.  7 Hours 42/75

The Infamous Kearsarge B8

  Day: 5/17 Time: 8:45 This will be a bit of a different blog post today. I am exhausted. I think what I did today mentally took 20 years off my life. I would like to blame it on the coffee that I didn’t have this morning, but truthfully it was my dog. I started out today with a little workout. That didn’t go well. I was probably in there for 30 minutes. Once I told my mom Lily and I were hiking Kearsarge today she practically begged me to take the dog. I decided it would be the perfect bonding moment for my dog and me. We’ve always had this unspoken understanding that we don’t really get along. I think he knows I like cats. Anyway, I decided it would be fine. My mother promised me no hikers would be around, and that we would be totally fine. So, we venture up Kearsarge. It starts out fine. Beautiful day, with a little breeze, no bugs, and a dog that is behaving. Well, that doesn’t last long. We come up to a mini white hotdog dog in a harness. I’m holding Atlas down with brute forc...
