Joe is off to college

and I waved goodbye to Joe as he and Mom and Michael pulled out of the drive
way and drove down Dennis
Drive
and they began the long trip to Maine.  Joe is off to Bowdoin
College
this fall, and we are all so very excited for him.  Makes me
think back a lot to what it was like to leave for college.  There are so
many unknowns.  So much excitement and terror and glee and fear. 
After leaving his stuff in his room, Joe will head off for a pre-orientation
frosh trip to Acadia National Park
for a four day hiking trip.  Bryan and I are hoping to head out to visit
and to do some camping of our own on the Maine coastline sometime soon.   Photos
I snapped the day of Joe’s departure are in the gallery.
