Maine-Ward Bound!

You know those moments at the end of a long day when your family, out of the blue, decides to, oh, ya' know, just go drive to Maine.

   Yeah.

Anyway, the day I posted last about being in the library all day; Tuesday I suppose, when we got home my mom talked to my dad and suggested that we go to Maine to visit my grandparents.  Well, I better back up a bit more.




   My grandparents travel around in a 5th Wheel camper all over the country.  Well, we don't get to see them but 2-3 times a year, and we always miss them.  Well, they are going to be spending this next month in Maine, and I have an aunt in Connecticut, so we thought that it would be fun to drive up there, stay with my aunt, see my grandparents and then come back.  So, long story short, we leave this Tuesday.  I have never been to New England, so this is going to be really cool!!  Plus, I get to DDDRRRRRIIIIIIVVEEEEE!!!!! {Cue trumpets and happy choir background music}

    So, the real point of this post is that I don't know what my blogging schedule will be the next 2 weeks.  I'm going to try to take pictures while I'm not driving, but I still don't know if Tacit Tuesdays will happen.  I'll try.  I probably will not post much at all, but then again I might.  We'll see how it works out.

   Also, I know I've gotten behind on some commenting.  For some reason I kinda fell off the blogging wagon as far as responding to comments, checking on new followers blog, welcoming them, etc, etc.  I'm very sorry.  Despite my incompetence, you all are very special to me and at some point I will get caught up on that!

  I have 3 awards posts to do, and I have a note on my computer so I won't forget!  I have awards from:

   Forever Changed
   Simply Scribbles
  Middle Child

If I missed an award, please comment so I can add you to my list!  I'll try to get at least one of those done on my trip, but if not very soon after!

  You may have noticed that this post was split off into a "Read More" section.  What do you think of that?  I'm only going to do the last 5-6 posts, and please let me know what you think, and if I should start dividing them like that or if you liked it better with the whole post on the page.

Sorry for this improv trip, I know I promised you guys that after camp I was done, but I suppose sometimes things can't be helped....Like trips to Maine. ;)

Have a wonderful week!

ps.  If I hadn't been lazy I might have gotten up and taken a picture of Maine on a map, but I don't feel like getting up so you all get a picture of a flower XD Haha

  1. #firstcomment lol anyways I'm glad you get to "DDDRRRRRIIIIIIVVEEEEE!!!!!" I hope you have an awesome time! and personally, I prefer the "read more" sections, 'cause when it comes to comments and finding responses and such, this makes it easier to see if the comment number has changed, etc... Anyways I like it this way.. =) <3

  2. How totally awesome! You get to go to Maine, drive AND go on a vacation! You are so lucky! I'm not sure if I like or dislike having to click "read more". I like it on some blogs, but on others... I'm not sure yet. ;) I wish my family would just up and decide to go to Maine! Will you be swimming anywhere? we are going to miss you again!!!

    1. Haha, and see my grandparents! It is a very blessed situation. =) I think I'll just take it back to the original. For me it is a little hard to tell the difference between posts. I'm not sure if we will be swimming. Depends on the weather, I suppose. =)
