My dear friend Laura was gra­cious enough to invite us up to her family’s home in Maine to cel­e­brate her 30^th birth­day. So after Chicago, off we jet­ted to Maine. No big deal. Repa­tri­a­tion Sum­mer Tour 2012, we are hardly joking.

Maine is incred­i­ble. Filled with beau­ti­ful sights and the most deli­cious food every­where. Gosh, I know I say I eat deli­cious food a lot, but in Maine, it’s dif­fer­ent. Their tap water tastes sweeter, their berries are bluer, their milk is creamier, and their greens seem like they’re health­ier, even! The Food­ist knows what I’m talk­ing about.

More on the good food (includ­ing my FIRST LOBSTER BAKE!) later. So fun. In the mean­time, here are a few more idyl­lic shots of the woodsy-watery-rugged-sweet-backcountry that is the epit­ome of Maine.
