The Maine - Mayan Connection? How is that relaxation coming along?

Maine - Mayan Connection?

Sunny skies, a light breeze, temps in the low 70's...summer in Maine.

"The feathered snake has reached the bottom step."

This was what I heard coming from our tiny alcove that is my husband's studio.  Oh, how Mayan.

But such is the odd sense of humor from my husband. :)  

Translation:  The sun is now past the bottom of the front stoop and he can go take his place on the steps for some relaxation away from his drawing without risking a sunburn.

 

Stoop timeI learned from Stewart Penn that today is National Relaxation Day.  Good thing too, relaxation was the only thing on our schedule today. Such are the events of a lazy sunny Sunday here in Maine.  First there are the obligatory afternoon shadow puppet plays on the front steps, then the digging activities of the children with their Japanese beetle obstacle course...and who knows what will be next.

shadow puppets

Yes, we are easily amused!

Thanks to Stewart we now know that we are simply doing our part to celebrate this important national holiday.  All of our cleaning and chores were finished yesterday, and today is just ours to enjoy life as we know it here in Maine.

 

How is your National Relaxation Day going?

If you would like to find your little slice of Maine to relax in, please feel free to call me or visit living and working in Auburn Maine.

Fred:  Muggy can be good to0!  It's kind of like having a swimming pool without the actual water. :)

Jack:  Thank you, but my husband is the funny one.  I'm just along for the ride.

Kristen, Church followed by mail run to our two boxes, lunch, Wal-mart for a couple of quick things (trying to relax and not engage in Cart Rage!), then two stops at local nurseries looking for a good sale, then back home!  Thunder is rumbling outside pretty good for right now and can't mow the back lawn thanks to yesterday's downpour!  So perhaps some forced relaxation!

Bill:  Don't you just love the rain!  Kudos to you, give the mower and yourself a rest (forced or not) and enjoy!  My favorite line is "gee I REALLY wanted to mow the lawn, but alas, it is too wet.  I guess it will have to wait."  :)

Kristen, My Dad is here in Arkansas with me this week. He attended my daughter Pam's college graduation with us yesterday. We're not very far along on making him an Arkie though. Everybody goes a little sideways over his |Maine accent.

 Enjoy the holiday and yes thanks to Stewart now we know.

Relaxation is taking a three hour nap on a 100+ degree day. Been a nice Sunday here too.
