Brunswick, Pt. 16

Our day today didn't start until late in the afternoon.  I was out for most of the morning because I was feeling sick and had a huge headache.  Chelsea has been sick for the last couple days, so I'm pretty sure I got it from her.  Luckily, I got over it in less than a day and was shoe shopping by 5pm!  Woohoo!  I suddenly had an urge to go buy new running shoes (this was probably brought on by signing up for the Labor Day 8 mile run at Saguaro National Park).  I found some I *loved* thanks to the recommendation of my sister, who is also a runner.... but I didn't buy them yet.  We are planning to go to Portland in a few days to look at other options.  You can't just buy the first thing you see, you know?  

After shopping, we went with Mark and Rob to a local Mexican restaurant.  They don't have many of those restaurants here.  Seafood is their thing, I guess.  I still wasn't feeling 100%, so I took it easy and got a salad (laaame, I know).  

After dinner, we explored a foot bridge that crosses the Androscoggin River.  It was very wobbly and Chelsea didn't like it at all.  On the other side of the river was a beautiful walking path that we walked for about a mile or so.  We also found a hidden beach with some beer cans neatly collected and put into a paper bag.  At least the teenagers around here pick up after themselves?  Sure, let's go with that.  

Must have been something fairly fascinating in that tree. No, actually they were all trying to convince Joel to climb it. Fearing a broken arm/hand/etc. he wisely declined.

One of the little "secret" beaches along the walking path.
