The decor was nautical of course and this little guy with his nightcap on was waiting to greet us. He was just too cute to leave behind, so he now greets guests at our own B&B. No, of course we don't really own a B&B, but a family member that was visiting jokingly dubbed our house that, and the name has stuck.
The view from the room.
Guarding the pool. Rose hips.....
asters...
pink asters...
and purple asters...everywhere. Yes, it's true, I love asters.
Strawberry Hill
A little fall color mixed in with the green.
Stranded! at low tide.
Lobster buoys abandoned in the grass... retired?
Wherever we went, we could see these lobster buoys in the water. The first time I saw one, at a long distance out, I thought it was a duck. Until I realized it hadn't moved for at least 5 minutes. A little slow on my part, but hey, we don't have lobsters in Michigan. Not in the water anyway.
We met a nice young couple here with a son who was a bundle of energy and never stopped moving. The dad took a moment to get a shot of us.
In the morning we were treated to a gorgeous sunrise.
But the sun is almost up, time to get going. Places to go and things to see.
