Thanksgiving in Maine
Well, I spent the past few days up at my mom’s house in Maine celebrating Thanksgiving. I drove up on Wednedays, and came back on Saturday. Mom prepared a great Thanksgiving dinner, including juicy turkey, mashed potatoes, lima beans, stuffing, and the like. It was all great. The turkey was a free government turkey, which my mom got from the place she was working. We had some doubts about how it would turn out, but it ended up being one of the best turkey’s I’ve had.
Pretty much the entire time I was up there, Ralph tried to find a moose for me to take a picture of. I’m led to believe the moose are equipped with some sort of camera detecting radar system, as they all managed to hide for the 2 days we were looking. About the closest I came was seeing a deer on the way back on a highway off-ramp. Ah well, maybe next time.
Speaking of pictures, I took another bunch of the cabin while I was up there, and got the uploaded to my gallery.
Overall I had a good time, it was relaxing to get away from the apartment and work for a few days and not really have anything to do. I’ve got a ton of leftovers that I was sent home with in the fridge. Those should last me about a week, I think. Now I just need to start planning my next trip out to Indiana and Michigan later this month. 
I saw a moose last time I was in Maine. The time before that we went moosing, driving around at twilight when they’re supposed to come out along the roadside. Didn’t see any. The next time I went, my father and I were canoeing down the Androscoggin in the middle of the afternoon and there was a moose plodding up the river. Didn’t get a picture. Go figure.
