            When I used to visit Maine more regularly, we’d often pass this cove so well-hidden by trees that if you weren’t paying attention, you’d drive past and never even realize it was there. For some reason, places like that fascinate me. They are places that reveal themselves to those looking for them; the ones who pay attention and look for the unexpected. Driving on the only road leading in or out to a distant island, with trees on both sides and knowing there was water just beyond and out of sight, we’d suddenly catch a quick glimpse of one of these small coves, often with boats moored safely away from the worst of Maine’s storms. We all need these safe coves at times; a place to be sheltered and hidden away from the worst of what life throws at us.

            Happy Weekend!
