An Afternoon Date For Our 28th

It was a picture perfect day and who could ask for anything more for celebrating our 28 years together.  We dined under an umbrella, out on the lawn at the Jordan Pond House in Acadia National Park. 


A place known for their popovers. 




How about just one more bite Henri? 



My seafood chowder was so good! 



Look!  Two more popovers with his meal.  This place is awesome!




Me, trying to savor the moments before they pass too quickly.   




Pinch me, I just love it here.  It's casual, yet such a dreamy setting. 



You can even bring your favorite pooch if you want. 




And the service, perfection.     







The best part of an afternoon date, is that you make it back home before dark in time to watch everyone leaving for their sunset cruise while you take your evening stroll. 



We are so very blessed to get to share yet another August 5th together.   And for that we remain very thankful and a little dazed by how fast 28 years seems to have flown by for us.

Happy Anniversary, Lili! What a beautiful day you had! I just googled the Jordan Pond House, and I am definitely taking hubby there. We were hoping to take a few drives up the coast this summer, and that looks like the perfect spot for a lovely afternoon meal. Thanks so much!

Happy anniversary - you still seem as in love as when you met. I've never met a popover before. I can't tell if they're more like donuts or Yorkshire puddings!

I now have added this to my "must do' list.

I've always wanted to eat there. I've walked through, used their restroom facilities, but have never eaten there. Some day!! And George will be with me.
