Places: Moody's Diner

We stopped at a favorite of ours, Moody's Diner, on the way up to the camp.  We've done this a couple other times.  I have a photographic memory and can picture those times vividly.  We unloaded from the van and the boys immediately ran up this very steep hill in front of us.  I watched from below, and as usual captured the moment on film....my heart keenly aware of the little girl not with us. 
 
 

 
Then I turned around and noticed the little flower (a single dandelion) in front of our van and I knew...
She's not as far away as she feels sometimes.
 
 
Inside, we had lots of laughs
 

 
Per Isaiah's request.....

 
Sam's first egg and milk allergy-free trip to Maine started out right with grilled cheese and french fries!  Last year we had to bring cold rice and canned meat everywhere we went!!
 
  And Asa had his first french fry - which was well received and super cute.
 
And we reminisced about the "Good Old Days" - in more ways than one.
