A Living Magazine - Grounded in Maine - Day 5 - Prepared for Rain

There won't be much to say about this day. I woke up and packed up, then headed to Dunkin Donuts to work until the library opened.

On a side note, this Yarmouth Dunkin Donuts is very well run. The employees are friendly and the owner, even though I haven't met him, seems like a hell of guy. He comes in and visits, helping behind the counter and is just a very modest and unassuming person. They are fortunate to work for him.

At 10:00 am I walked over to the library. On my way across the lawn I caught sight of these wild grapes growing all around the telephone pole...




Give them another month and they should be quite tasty!


I worked for about four hours then left to see if I could find some lunch. As soon as I got to the front lawn I saw a hot dog guy across Main. Seemed like a good idea...


Reds, with chili and kraut!


Then it was back to the library for the rest of the day. I get this weird blood sugar thing, where I begin to start nodding if I'm at the library and have just eaten. Something about the calm quite, and I guess all those carbohydrates?

The sky was looking unsettled outside. I checked the weather. Damn! Sure enough, a thunderstorm was expected at 9:00 pm. I left early to get set up. I wasn't going to make the same mistake I'd made in Falmouth the other day... 






Ready for the storm. I hung out kind of half-exploring the area until those clouds rolled in. The following is a tree right next to where I sleep. I think a combination of woodpeckers and large carpenter ants have done this work...




When the rain started I climbed in the tent. It was really just an uneventful day. I wish I could have shared an adventure with you folks, but some days are just like this. Strange though, how rare these bland but peaceful days really are.
