Another Day in Paradise

Well the weather is not cooperating.  The whale watch was cancelled again.  We headed to Acadia and although not perfect, the weather allowed us to see the breathtaking views from Cadillac Mountain.  We walked around the summit until my knees ached.  It is nothing less than spectacular.  We explored Deer Island by car and saw the sun for about 90 minutes.  We scoped out a bar called Joe's Cigar Room.  The sign said fine brandy and cigars.  Surrendering to the weather, we went to Joe's to warm up and adjust our attitudes.  I walked in and ask the lovely woman behind the bar "Is this a place where a man can enjoy a good cigar and a glass of brandy?"  She looked at me with a big smile and said "No."  That about sums up the day.  However, the company of and the conversation with the graduate has been spectacular.
