A Gardeners Forum Forums T Willy has come to Maine!

We came back around beachside.



Wouldn't I love to live in this cottage, it's my dream!



One last look at the Atlantic for the day.



And goodbye to the diggers, working so hard, it is back-breaking.

wHAT WAS THEY DIGGING?
Lots of our folks go to va beach.Yes nice cottage.Guess lots of folks rent and roam there.
Thanks for sharing.

I enjoyed that trip as much as willy did..Never looked at Maine in that respect.
Nicely done......You must be honored to live near the ocean.. DO you swim? I don't.......

Oh Willy ......all of us wish we could travel like you are in a box and see the usa......Were Jealous.

Thanks for letting us see TW again.
I could tell he was full of wonder at all the oceanside things he saw.

We look forward to seeing more of him and learning about his adventures around the country.

Now that was a great day for T Willy ~ His first view of an ocean!!

Too bad He didn't dig for a clam and find at least one! He would have been really tickled at that!! But then again he may have ran from it not knowing what they are,, Beings it's his first exposure to the ocean Hey Did he get to pick up a sea shell and hold it up to his ear??

I'm glad he didn't have a little life jacket in his suitcase or he might have wanted to go for a dip.

angelblossom , they may have clammed willy up.. Shoe fits, wear it .LOL

ooohhh.....willy looks awfully cold! hope he got to ride back in your shirt pocket to warm up. beautiful shots! I especailly like the rock formation, and the young moss.

I'm so glad TW got his first view of the Atlantic Ocean - I used to love taking walks on the beach near my parents house, as a teen, in the winter - especially on a dreary day - there were all sorts of things to look at!

I did notice that most of the Maine beaches where we vacationed a few summers ago were quite different than the ones we are used to down here in NY and NJ. Much mor rocky and jagged. Though the ones you showed here looked more like what I know.

How have your kids liked having TW around?
Any stories to tell about their interactions - pictures?

mel, it looks like he has had a great time with you. i've had a great time with you and him i just haven't posted much, but i've sure been reading

What's been going on with Traveling Willy?

There's been no news for a few days and we miss his adventures!!!

Is he ill? I hope not.

MAYBE ILL INFORMED?

He did get a little sick from the IMAX theater at the Boston Museum of science.

Willy went to Boston with us on Friday with my son's 3rd grade class. 6 hours in the bus, and I felt carsick too. And there was a kid who needed the bucket in the seat next to me. I didn't get many good pictures, but all in all we had a good time. There was a good electricity show that was loud and flashy, Willy enjoyed that.

Here we are having lunch and enjoying a view of Boston from the Charles River.

The square building in top center is the Prudential Tower, 2nd tallest now in Boston. Hancock is taller. To the left of that is 111 Huntington Ave also known as the R2-D2 building. It is part of the "Pru" complex. It is the tallest skyscraper built in Boston since 1987. The 8th tallest now in Boston. The Hancock, the tallest in Boston is in the center of the 2nd picture.

Willy says he wants to go home. He misses Bill and especially Cindy. He needs to check on her. He will be leaving Maine tomorrow. I have had a lot of fun with him and hope that one day he will return.

Oh it looks like Willy had a wonderful time there in Maine with you Mel! You got some wonderful pictures! Thanks for showing the beach in Maine and the cottages. It is fun to see different areas like that!

Thanks for the scenic view of Boston......You did well with willy on tour.
Thanks for sharing and caring......

Willy will have lots of stories to tell Bill and CIndy when he arrives.

Thanks for being a patient person............

Looks like TW had a good time in Boston - thanks for sharing your trip with us!

Is there no one else who wanted to host him before he heads back to Cindy and Bill? I thought he was going to visit the west coast before heading back home?

ASk Alan or thorn or Cleve

I am a little busy to host him here. And right now I have no camera to share his adventures. But I've promised him a trip to Disneyland in the future.

OK, where is Traveling Willy right now? Puddin' has been asking about him!!!

I think He has gone back to Cedarhill he needs to check on Cindy ,, and touch bases with 'home'.

Cindy-poo......Is Willy there yet????

Maybe you an Bill forgot to go for the mail for a while.. And TWilly is setting there in the dark post office???????
He will [BLEEP] when he arrives.........
Mark my word.

I hope he is snuggled down in his blankie and sleeping bag,, He's going to be plenty hungry when he gets out of there

I think she packed snacks for him when he wakes....
Wonder if he misses his ex girlfriend?

Oh, my--I hope we find him soon---I would not want him getting all frightened--being out in the world all by himself, alone........ Good thing he at least has his blanket with him.

some how, willy is such a strong little gnome, i doubt he would be frightened, but he might find more adventure than he's used to.

I hadn't looked at it in tht light--Jiffy---you are very likley correct.

Just checking in to see the adventures! I am sure he will be okay, he has become a pro at this by now!

Has T willy Made it to Cedar Hill yet??

Doesnt look like anyone made it to cedar hill lately.. Even the bird camera is set on shadows for days now......
Like a Silent Nite......Maybe Willy and Bill are doing men things??????

Calling Amber Alert! 911???????Maybe he stopped for the Holiday?

There's Trouble in Town.........

I don;t suppose T Willy's box was insured was it???--it could be tracked if it was......

Beats me?
Ask the sender??????????

great minds think alike!!!

A thought just occured to me--if he was NOT sent priority mail--he could actually still be on his way---I have heard of standard mail taking a month or more in some cases.
