Year Three: The Mitchell Family

Covid cancelled the Mitchell family’s annual trip to Maine from Charlotte last year but it couldn’t keep them away this year! Vaccinations and a long car trip meant three full weeks in Maine visiting Nicola’s family, splitting time between her childhood home in Falmouth and their family lake house on Frye Island. We met up at the Giant’s Stairs, somewhere neither she nor her parents had ever been. Bad weather and scheduling challenges meant we met up midday, the bluest sky and warm temps welcoming us to the rocky coastline of Bailey Island.

As two years had passed since I last saw them, it was fun to catch up with the girls, Kiara and Leigh Bell, along with Dave, and Nicola’s parents, host to us as high school kids basically every weekend many years ago!
