WomanLand has happened!

Women have arrived, women have eaten, rested, toured, and shopped! The following pages have highlights pictures from our WomanLand festivities.

Thursday, May 23: Visit to the coast -- Ogunquit, Maine. We got underway by mid-morning and arrived in Ogunquit in time for lunch. Afterwards we walked the beach and then headed into the village for a little sightseeing and touring. The candy shop was a big hit, along with various other craft places and, of course, the ice cream parlor!
After Ogunquit, we headed down to Kittery, Maine for some outlet mall shopping, followed by a dinner at Weathervane Seafood -- where Renee, in particular, had a wonderful time with their lobsters and other seafood dishes!

Friday, May 24: We made a leisurely trip into Boston for lunch at Bella Vista in the North End, followed by a walking tour of Paul Revere's statue, St. Leonard's church, Copps Burying Ground, and the Old North Church. After that we went to Faneuil Hall and Quincy Market for more shopping and sightseeing.

Saturday, May 25:We headed out to the Vermont Country Store, picnicking at a Vermont Park along the way. After some righteous shopping, we headed down to Yankee Candle -- where apparently no one took pictures.

Sunday, May 26:We had a special luncheon at Pickety Place Herb garden and restaurant in Mason, New Hampshire. I'm sure Daddy was wondering about the roads after we left the blacktop and went into the woods for a couple of miles past the Pig Pen Hill farms and other rustic places. But it was worth the drive and we had a wonderful time visiting the gift shops, gardens, greenhouses, and of course, eating the lunch!
Afterwards we drove a few miles to a local sugaring house called Parker's Maple Barn, where we (again) visited gift shops and enjoyed the rural New Hampshire ambience.
