Maine Rendezvous 2005

The Biddeford Pool Rendezvous was a great success. It started out with a good size group for dinner Friday evening at Bufflehead's Restaurant. We enjoyed some nice wine and good food.
On Saturday we had plenty of time to socialize, walk to the nearby beach, and to the quaint little town. Ann and Skip Irving along with their son Lonnie, hosted us while their other son Tom was away at camp in New Hampshire as a counselor.
Dinner was served - plenty of lobster, chicken and many other scrumptious side dishes. For dessert we had home-made strawberry shortcake - it was awesome, with plenty of whipped cream.
On Sunday a group of us went for another walk out by the ocean overlooking Wood Island Light. There was a fund-raising event for the lighthouse - dozens of artists lined the shore painting and sketching the lighthouse. There would be an auction that evening to raise money for the renovation of the light. It was fun to see the different perspectives and renderings by the varied artists.
Commander Kathleen Lambert and her husband Wayne, along with many others, including Barbara and Martin Owens, Naomi and Weldon Nelson, Jean and Bill Moseley, Sandy and Irwin Macey all pitched in to make this a fun event.
Come join us for a future function - it's a great way to get to know your fellow members better and have a great time.
