I will spend the 4th here in SC, not Maine. Not Bath. No Heritage Days for us this year. My heart is heavy with the thought of it. Finances just won't support it right now, and although I know this is the right thing to do, it doesn't make it any less painful.
We have been here for the 4th before, and have been okay. There is even a chance we can still go this summer, maybe later this month. But, in all probability, we will not go to Maine until Christmas, and then we are at the whim of the weather. My mom is so disappointed, it's breaking my heart. It's so hard being so far away.

Bummer! I was hoping you were coming home and come say hi, maybe dance in the streets of Bath (or in the middle of the New Road, lol) and watch the fireworks! Guess i'll have to mope around and do chores instead (sigh). Only consolation is that fireworks will probably be rained out tonight. Like most of June... and most of May... let's hope the rest of the summer is better, and that this finds you well (though a little dejected), and that you can still enjoy the 4th with your kids!
damn, I finally get a comment and it is about my sadness at not going home this summer! Nice to hear from you, Wayne, now please don't give my maple syrup away... that'll put me into a deeper sadness! It is hotter than HELL down here, but the thought of coming home for Christmas is the best antidote for that. Love to the girls from their former babysitter, I can still see them running in the lawn with my guys.
