Maine Trip Wrap-up

It was a great weekend we had up in Maine with the kellster and her family, first off the water was 20 yards from the back porch, and this house was brand new filled with brand new appliances, which leads me to believe i'm not supposed to have a ton of money because these appliances were pretty damn tricky to figure out, didnt realize they make washer and dryers so complicated, becuase the house was start of the art and great.

To be more specific, we went up to Wells, ME and for those of you who haven't been, which i bet is everyone reading this, this a more WT version of the Cape but we stayed in the nicer part of wells on the beach. The supermarket was filled with women who had sleeve tattoos and im not lying when i say i saw 3 different dudes with nascar numbers tattooed on their bodies which even lead to a semi-heated exchange in the cracker aisle (no cracker was not used as a joke i was actually in the cracker aisle) about their favorite drivers because both guys had different numbers inked on their arms, and by the size of these guys they whole car could have been inked on, not being mean but it was a 850 lb argument and only two people in it.

The main shopping plaza that had the hannefords in it, had a bank of america branch which we needed to visit, so we tried to go inside on a Saturday night only to realize that there is no inside atm, we had just gotten to wells, so we didn't realize what kind of town it was, the only option was a drive through and her dad had taken the car and went and parked it, so we had to walk through the drive thru, with one car in front of us and another car waiting behind it, i have never felt so awkward and amused in my life, the car behind us gave us a 20 feet buffer zone. The mom in the mini van infront of us must have though we were meth heads or something.

On Sunday night we went to see a movie, the one with Johnny Depp, it was pretty good but kind of long, anyway we were the only ones in there and we were in the last row, and picture this theatre straight out of the 1980's, and right before it started a young teenage couple came in, and they didnt notice us, no one else came in, at the end of the movie, these kids who thought they were alone, as soon as the lights came on their heads popped up from the floor, the guy was getting up while putting his pants on, he caught sight of me and at this point i was staring and he absolutely froze, it was one of the funniest things i have been apart of, they gave us plenty of time to leave so they wouldn't run into us again, but we walked slow, mostly because we were too busy making jokes about them. on the floor of a dirty theatre really guy? anyway the best part is they go out to the parking lot both get in separate cars without exchanging any kind of goodbye, real classy.

I was running on the beach one morning and saw a baby seal on the beach, with a crowd of people surronding it, i love when people kneel right up to it, like they are going to do something. "dont worry i watch the discovery channel" I have never seen a seal before so that was pretty cool. The water was numbing and very painful to go into it. we played a lot of card games, she had her 13 month old niece up there so we played with the baby a lot.

There was a pretty good thats what she said moment, we went to kennybunkport and her dad was trying to park and there was a car leaving that had its reverse lights on, but didnt move right away so her dad kept saying "are you gonna pull out yet" over and over again, thankfully i bit my tounge and didnt say anything becuase im sure that would have have gone over well. overall a very fun weekend/early part of the week.

  1. Houses on the beach are extremely preppy. You probably also walked along the beach at sunset too, which is even preppier.

  3. I got a chuckle when I pictured Terrence jogging by the Charles on his lunch hour whilst sipping on a latte and dressed in a 3-piece :)
