Kelson's Date Planning Luck

Kelson hadn't planned a date in a while, so I told him last week that it was his turn. His planning got as far as picking up a pizza after work and then driving up a street we hadn't been to the end of before to scope out a good picnic spot. We drove by some neat houses, a cemetery, and the city landfill. Just as we were about to turn around to avoid the dead-end, we realized that the street ended at a recreational area in the woods called Thorne head. That looked interesting, so we got out to explore. We walked up a trail for about ten minutes, came to the top of a ridge and saw this:

I suppose this will make an okay picnic spot. It was one of the most beautiful views we have found yet in Maine.

Kelson tried to convince me he did all of this on purpose. Yeah right. He was lucky.

We enjoyed our delicious Hawaiian pizza on this giant concrete toadstool.

Afterwards, we played with this very sociable squirrel/chipmunk (we had some disagreement as to which it was). We named him Alvin. He was funny.

We stayed until sunset. Gorgeous! I thank Heavenly Father for moments like this. Maybe I should let Kelson accidentally plan our dates every week.  This one worked out beautifully.
