Breakwater

Yaaaay my Mom came up for the weekend! It got cut short because her boyfriend wanted to go back early =[. I was NOT a happy camper. It was quite the fiasco. We did have a nice supper at the pearl and walked around downtown Rockland when they first arrived though. That was nice! We had our dog Payton with us, so he attracted plenty of attention, and created quite the dilemma of where we could eat. I'm glad we settled on the Pearl. I don't recommend the asparagus salad. That may or may not be what it is called, but that is the depiction that is portrayed when reading the description. That actually is not at all what it is. It is one of the most expensive things on the menu, but is smaller than the appetizer we ordered! It was two pieces of asparagus with a funny looking egg placed on top! Ridiculous!

Breakwater Lighthouse
The next day we went to the Breakwater, which was on my list of places to visit while I'm up here. From the water going to and from the islands I hadn't realized how long of a walk on the rocks it was out to the lighthouse! Its 7/8 of a mile! That doesn't seem all that long, but when every step risks a chance of a broken ankle, its plenty long enough!

We finished the visit off with a trip to the Badger cafe. The food is really good there! Sadly though we polished off our plates and were headed back to the campground soon enough. I would have been really happy if we could have spent the whole weekend doing all the things I had planned for us, but I was promised another visit. Let's see if she sticks to her word...
