Exploring Maine

Yesterday I put the finishing touches on my design for a little cabinet.  It will be 25 inches tall, 7wide, and about 6 deep,  with one door and two drawers.   I have chosen maple for the material.   I have to use one big slab for the top because it will be curved/rounded and so the depth is increased.  I found a nice piece with interesting markings for the body.  (pictures to follow, maybe tomorrow).

Today I took the day off from woodworking.  I am slightly ahead of schedule so I figured I'd slack before the pressure rises again.  I went for a lovely trail run on the back side of Camden State Park and met three other trail runners and two dogs.  We all are giddy that there's no hunting allowed on Sundays.  Then I treated myself to a little tour of the coast, complete with coffee and views.   This most recent photo is of a large piece of property that my friend Becky's grandfather donated to the city of Camden.  They have community programs year round.  I did not see one belted cow.

My landlord is out of town for the week so I offered to watch the cat while he's gone.   She hasn't shown any interest in coming to my side of the house.   So I'm off to fetch her!

Happy Sunday!
Just for the record, I just talked to Joanna in Seattle who said it was snowing!  We were at 27 degrees this morning but clear skies.  I keep hoping...
