Shortly after
church on Sunday, October 14 several folks embarked on an adventure that was a mystery to all but a few. Dan and Ruth Doughty with the assistance and conniving of Rosemary Herd had set up a mystery ride for the adventurous to follow. Ruth gave us
a starting time and in individual cars we set off with directions to follow and questions to answer. The route took us through a part of South Portland into Cape Elizabeth and if we followed the directions in the right way we all ended up at the Pavillion overlooking Casco Bay at the SMCC campus. What a glorious view when we arrived at that location and eventually found everyone else that had started the trip arriving eventually. It was quite a while before Barb and Betty arrived at this beautiful spot. Prizes were given out for the most accurate tim
e and completed answers. I tell you, I still haven’t found the Emerald Way off Mitchell. Everyone who arrived ate their own picnic lunches and then had cupcakes provided by Rosemary. We had a pumpkin hunt that had been preplanned by the Doughtys’ and then families and individuals got the opportunity to decorate or carve the pumpkins. Those who enjoyed the d
ay together included the Doughtys, Rosemary, Chris Ward, Dick, Cheryl, Aaron, Dustin and Kiley Marie Matthews, Sally Seidl and Sam, Sue Angell, Kerry, Nicole and Samantha Foote, Karen, Kelty, Callie and Seamus Jennings, Curtis and Madeline Coughlin, Keith and Becky Snoddy, Gwyneth, Jamie, Faith, Dena and Alex Arrison, Art and Marlene Tordoff, Barbara Nelson, Betty Splettstoesser, and Brad and Becky Morrison.It was a wonderful day to view the foliage, to carve pumpkins, and to be with other folks; children and adults alike.
