Mom and my niece, Leeloo 8-20-14
On August 19 my brother Stephen finally came to visit me in Maine, along with my Mom and his granddaughter and my niece, Leeloo. None of them had been to my new home yet and so after showing them around on the first day, I took them to visit Fort Popham State Historic Site in Phippsburg the next day. Since Mom needs to use her walker now it was an easy place to take them. The fort had a little of something for all of us, including water, history and birds! Here are a few pictures from that day.

(We were both thinking that our youngest brother would like this place!)
This fish skeleton looked like a fossil to us!
I didn’t see a lot of birds here, but I did see a few, as well as a seal out in the water. Fort Popham is where the Kennebec flows out to the sea and so there is a mixture of fresh and salt water. It was a lovely afternoon and I was happy to share it with my family.
Great post, Kathie. I really like your pictures and you look alot like your mom. Glad to see she was able to enjoy this place with you.
ReplyDeleteThanks Cindy. And yes, I do look like my mother. I have tired to escape that fact all my life, especially as a teen, but now I just embrace it!
DeleteYour Mum looks well Kathie.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Roy! It's nice of you to notice. She is doing very well so far and we are all very thankful!
