Said Goodbye to Sam and Kathy!

We were up at 6 this morning to meet Sam and Kathy at the Maine Diner for breakfast at 7.  This famous diner has been on the early morning TV shows as well as Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives.  They have served over 6 million customers and have an interesting menus at reasonable prices.  We left the Diner at 8 and Sam and Kathy began the trip back home.  We are going to miss being with them, but so happy they were here for 1 week of our adventure.





After getting groceries, we relaxed, ate lunch and packed up our bikes to head to Footbridge Beach.  We carried our chairs on our back during the 2 mile ride.  It was a hot, humid and sunny day, but beautiful.  Also a nice breeze when sitting on the beach.  We took a walk down the beach and saw a piping plover on its nest on the beach.  It is a protected bird and they had placed a fence around it and ropes to keep tourists from getting too close to the nesting area.

A walk over the footbridge to Footbridge Beach!

A perfect beach day!

A piping plover sitting on its nest in the sand!

This piping plover was outside the fenced nesting area.
Could it be the father????

Lots of people in the water today.  Love the sailboat in the
background!



We rode back to Willie by 4:45 where we showered and I took a short nap.  Ken hung our dragonfly lights, went through all the brochures, maps, etc. we had collected and then started a wood fire to cook our steak and salmon.  We had a delicious supper.

Took a walk around the CG and settled in around 8:45.  Did stop to meet John who is a friend of our mutual friends, Chuck and Melissa. 

Tomorrow we hope to head to the beach in York and look for more seaglass. 

Here is the collection of seaglass we found yesterday!
