On Vacationing In Sin
I haven’t really talked much about the trip PCG and I took to Maine. It really was exquisite and at least a few times a week, we look at each other and wish we were back there. Oh Maine! Glorious place of foliage and seafood and legalizing same sex marriage!
OH WAIT. You guys suck at that last part.
Anyway. The one thing PCG told me he wanted to do in Maine was to find a covered bridge. There are seven or eight in the entire state and on Saturday early afternoon, we drove north to Wyndham in search of one. And oh my, it did not disappoint. It was built over a gorgeous little body of water and the pictures I took there are some of best.
PCG and I could not resist cartwheeling and jumping and acting like loons. And I, of course, could not help but make my head disappear all Sleepy Hollow-like. You can’t see it obviously because I have no face in the pictures but while PCG snapped the camera, I was laughing my ass off like I was the FUNNIEST PERSON who EVER THOUGHT of such a GENIUS IDEA.
Sigh.
Regardless, we spent a most tranquil afternoon at the covered bridge, sitting near the pond, taking in the quiet. I loved that it wasn’t a touristy destination and that we were the only people around except for a few cars that passed through.
I congratulated PCG on coming up with such a wonderful idea, told him that he was my very favorite person in all the land.
And you must understand that this was EXTREMELY NICE OF ME considering that the morning before? While I was taking a shower and PCG was brushing his teeth?
And I saw the shadow of his head appearing over top of the shower curtain?
And I figured he was sneaking a peek at my naked body which would’ve been VERY UN-CATHOLIC LIKE.
But before I could say anything, I realized that he was not, in fact, sneaking a peek all un-Catholic like.
You know how I know this?
Because instead, he took that opportunity to dump a cup of ice cold water over my head.
And then he laughed his ass off like he was the FUNNIEST PERSON who EVER THOUGHT of such a GENIUS IDEA.
What can I say?
We get along well.













I may actually do that to my husband in the shower tomorrow. Thanks for the idea
My Dad did that ‘cup of cold water while you’re showering’ thing to my Mom all the time. They’re divorced, now.
OMG i was laughing so hard outloud while reading this! What a great time. I loved the headless pics too. You are sooooooo funny.
Tim – Um. Thank you. For such an…uplifting comment.
I think this means I can cross #5 off of my list.
