Through the rise and falling apart, we discover who we are.

My blog has become a bit of a self-help bonanza over the last few days, which is good, and I thank all of you for your comments. But, in an attempt to escape this for a bit, and sure to be to the liking of some of you, here are some pictures I took back in July during a trip to Maine that I hadn't had a chance to post yet. There will be more about the separation, but I'm having a pretty good day overall, and I just felt like getting a few of these out there instead of dwelling on her.
