gnomiWe're back from Maine and from Pesach-ness. It was odd to have real chametz for breakfast this morning (they brought in rolls/bagels to supplement the Pesach-friendly breakfast foods they'd been serving all week).
The rest of Pesach since I last posted was wonderful. On Thursday, the ladies of the family went on an excursion to Kittery and did some shopping. On Friday, we mostly hung around the Cliff House and enjoyed the weather (it had started to get warmer, and the snow from Wednesday melted) and then got ready for Shabbat. Shabbat was relaxing. On Sunday, the family went to the Maine Narrow Gauge Railroad Company and Museum and rode the train and then browsed the museum for a bit. We returned in time for lunch and with plenty of time to prepare for the observances of the last 2 days of Pesach, which were Monday and Tuesday.
The holiday ended last night, and we started preparing to come home. This morning, we got up, had breakfast (including chametz in the form of fresh rolls and bagels), and then packed the car, said goodbye to the family, and came home.
I'm behind on LJ like whoa and do not anticipate catching up. Please let me know if anything important happened while I was away.
Omer, day 8

Would you and Michael be free in the evening? I'd love to get a chance to meet up with you, since I missed you at Arisia.
Please feel free to e-mail me at pmcsquared at yahoo dot com.
