Maine

After a 9 hour drive not including the 45 minutes that we spent at rest stops, we arrived in Maine. Boat performed admirably, never breaking a sweat and providing impressive performance and air conditioning for the entire duration of the drive. I drove all 500 miles or so myself, and honestly wasn't all that tired afterwards.

In other news...er...I get a roaming signal of one bar in my room up here. The only reason I am able to post is because the Panera in Augusta offers just as free WiFi as the one on Ridge Pike down in Philly.

I've been trying to draw while I'm here, but I've also managed to re-read The Da Vinci Code. It's such a great puzzle story, and it's made me so excited for the movie that's supposed to come out next year, I just hope that they don't mess it all up. I tried to read it this time and imagine how I might set things up as far as scenes and shots go. It's especially hard because the story involves so many flashbacks. Not impossible, and I thought of a number of ways to pull some off, but it has the possibility to make things difficult.

So far I've drawn a nice row boat, and an absolutely horrendous stack of logs. Next? An umbrella! Exciting right? Welcome to Maine.

They just built a brand new movie theater up here but I really want to wait and see all the new movies with friends. Grr. Tough decisions.

And I really do miss you all. It's lonely up in Maine with just the family. Thankfully, Elisa and Ian Kranz are here with there son Emanuel. I know some of you know him, though probably as Eman. He's awesome and I'm really glad there are finally some people up here I can laugh and at least attempt some crosswords with. But there will never be substitutes for best friends and so I really can't wait to see you all again.

All my love to you. I hope things are well down there. Call me if you can.

I gotta write Maggie...er...what's her address at camp again?
