Bar Harbor, Me

I put this together late at night and isn't that a scary thought. It did come together rather well.

However, I couldn't figure out what photos to put on the page once the base was completed. I happened to drop a b&w strip of photos on it  and it looked okay. Sort of.

Therefore, back to the ole drawing board by going through the way-back box several times as well as other boxes full of photos and nothing spoke to me. Not.a.thing. I then turned to aperture and started plowing through the libraries.

For some reason my long travels and how to do those millions of photos still stymies me. Sad I know. I'm still dithering about with albums, pages, minis oh my. So therefore, I chose these photos that you just saw on the blog of course and scrapped them just to get the ole ball rolling. As we traveled northward toward Canada - I had to go to Bar Harbor. It was calling my name. It wasn't what I envisioned but I'm glad I visited just the same.

Hopefully getting a vacation destination from one of our trips will break open the damn dam :) and the rest of million photos will now flow.

Here's hoping.

The background is creative imaginations, ac thickers, simple stories, and studio calico for all remaining things, except for the metal do-dad. I have no idea.

Isn't it amazing that with all of the photos we have, sometimes we don't even have the right one for a page? LOL! Love how this turned out and yes, the photos are perfect here. :) Now I'm going to be thinking about Maine all day and saying it "Bah Hahbah" in my head. :)
