A snowshoe/hike to Race Point was just what the sun ordered yesterday! With a bright clear, windless day and fluffy new snow on the ground the 6 of us, Micah, Rafi, Cecilia, Joan, Adam and I, went off to enjoy the day! We got out of the house at 10:30 and all drove out in 2 cars. After a nice warming hike we lit the sauna and snacked and chatted and played with Cecilia in The Pond House. Lovely good time.
After a few hours the sauna was up to temp and we took turns in the 180 degree heat and tromping with Cecilia until she took a nap and slept peacefully on the enclosed porch bundled up in snuggily clothing, with us all looking over her. After cooling down with fistfuls of snow for the first few hits in the sauna, Adam and I psyched one another up, put our boots on and rolled in the snow!!! Woo! Hoo!
By the time we walked home there were only a few minutes of daylight left. We were of course armed with flashlights, but we didn't need them as the moonlight crept in and made a magical snowy walk home. Such a beautiful night! We stopped at the Whiting Store and purchased many exquisite chocolates, like Almond BonBons, Needhams, Peanut Butter Balls and Cowtails, we snacked/shared those like true champs. Then Adam and Joan sang in the backseat all the way to Dennysville.
