Today we had breakfast in our apartment. Cooking was a little challenging as we had no range. We did have a microwave and an air fryer that would allow you to bake. I was going to make sausage gravy and biscuits, but there were no microwavable bowls to make the gravy. So I fried the sausage, baked the biscuits and we had biscuits and sausage sandwiches. They were quite good Following breakfast we headed into Freeport to the big L.L. Bean store. This was the reason we came here because both Ed and Terry didn’t have enough time in the store when we were here last year. This store has everything! Of course everything is so expensive. It’s hard to justify a purchase. we will have to wait till the Christmas sales are on! Just down ... read more

Today was a travel day from the Fairfield Inn at Amesbury to the Kindle house BNB at Freeport. We were in no particular hurry since this was the worst day for hurricane Lee, and travel was to be challenging. Actually, we were supposed to be driving during the worst wind and rain of the storm. We had a leisurely breakfast at the hotel before packing the car in a light rain. Before we were finished the rain let up and we didn’t see rain the rest of the day. We did, however, see and feel the effects of wind. It was only a 2 Hour Drive to our next place to stay so we had planned on doing some sightseeing and shopping. Years ago I was at Kittery, Maine and I wanted to stop there again. ... read more

Today our goal was to go to Freeport to the outlet malls. Since both of us had gift cards to LLBean and Freeport is LLBean’s home, we were all excited. Trip up was uneventful. Found the right exit and there was the town. Actually Freeport is more than LLBean, there is an entire outlet center, but by far LLBean is the cornerstone. First there is corporate headquarters,the outlet store, the hiking and fishing store, the home store and the giant regular retail store. We managed to spend most of our money at the outlet store, but Carol got some other things at the retail store. I need to tell you that all the LLBean stores are not in one place, but scattered throughout downtown. Before we went to the retail store, we stopped at the Corning ... read more
