Spruce Creek

Devin and I found this area during one of our days of exploring. It's not hard...every road seems to lead to the ocean!
Spruce Creek
We came across this shed...the birds seemed to liked it!
Love all the buoys! 

We also came along this old wooden bridge...
Long washed away, but still photo worthy!
And of course...THE OCEAN!

Valentine's Day Masacre

We woke up to a full blown blizzard on February 14th. While most were deciding where they were going to celebrate their Valentine's Day, we were trying to cuddle together for warmth due to power-outages throughout the state. The weather predicted 10-20 inches of snow, sleet, and rain. Not to mention the 60 mile/hour winds...and blow it did!
Happy Valentine's Day!

Cold as Ice

While exploring another road, we came across this thick layer of ice covering the rocks on the side of the road. 
It was adjacent to a powerful hydroelectric plant...which was also a little detained by the ice.

Not so Steep Falls

While exploring our new surroundings, Devin and I happened upon a bridge leading to 'Steep Falls'.
Bridge leading to Steep Falls
 We were excited to be able to view the waterfalls.
 
Although these trickles did make a quaint splash...
I think the name was a little...mocking?!
 To say the least.
But, I did spot this really neat spirally rooted tree!
Definitely photo-worthy!

Rawr! The Ocean!!

So excited to have finally come face-to-face with the ocean! (Wells, ME)
Smile!
'Coastline' view, not what I expected :-/
So, I decided to turn my sites to a more appealing view...and drink it all in! (Well not literally.) :-)
'Twin rocks'
Love the ripples!
I thought I would add this one for Valentine's Day!

'Home' away from home...

Finally made it to Sanford Maine! My first travel assignment for my Radiology job! So exciting!  
However, after the almost 5 hour trip...we were not too excited to come 'home' to this hotel room.
Trying to clean...blech!
Comfy Kitchen...
This was definitely the most appealing piece!
Cozy!

My company had set us up in the one place they could find in this small town. Of course with them being out of AZ, they could only go by what the man told them on the phone. Thankfully they (Melissa) got us out of there quickly! And landed us this amazing place on Square Pond...who can object to this sunrise?!
