a special morning. up early with dreams of a 20-mile day, a big adventure. crossed the lake in darkness, and a fog so deep I couldn’t see feet in front of me. you know it’s a morning you’ll remember when the compass comes out.

lined the dam, ran the rips (or what’s left of them at 250cfs!) but don’t you worry, I’m a low water gal. it’s all brains no muscle, perfect for me. and oh the peace of paddling towards five finger west, feelin pretty sure (fall, after all!) my spot would be waiting. I used to wonder what it was like for John, having memories on memories layered up in these campsites, and now I feel like I’m starting to know. little familiar homes tucked away, deep in the woods. homes I’ve known for awhile now, longer than any place I’ve lived with windows and walls.

in the end, the day was 23 miles, 8 otters, 2 pots of coffee, 1 little blue boat, and me. the best of the summer so far. taken in Allagash Wilderness Waterway by @wetdayfire

to be honest! everytime I post something chainstitch I feel so sure the canoe guys will hate it! and whenever things get too woodsy around here, I feel bad for all the pals who followed me for the stitching. it’s silly, I know. and there’s nothing to be done: they’re both me, this is it, this is my life. And life is real good! chugging along, breeze in the leaves out my window, doing my best. it’s that time of year when a beautiful day feels like a gift and you want to squeeze every second out of it that you possibly can. and now, if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to head outside and do just that. taken in Maine by @wetdayfire

big surprise!! we’ve decided to add another all-women’s allagash trip to our season. together we’ll experience peak fall foliage in the north maine woods :) we’ll paddle, eat delicious home-cooked meals, listen to the loon calls at night, the stars above us as we gather cozy around the campfire. signups are open now!

next summer I’m going to have to raise the price of these trips — they’re a lot of work and someday soon, if I want to keep doing them, I’m going to have to buy a big ol girl van! but I’m excited to offer one more trip at this price before the change next summer :)

that’s all, I suppose! please reach out if you have any questions. I’m over the moon excited to experience the woods again with future friends before the winter sets in :) taken in Maine by @wetdayfire

big blue skirt + little blue canoe, came into my life accidentally within hours of eachother and it felt meant to be, like they’re supposed to go together I mean how could they not! the boat will be christened this week up in the woods: I can’t wait. the skirt will shine in the fall, swirling and twirlin, leaves all around her can’t you picture it? anyway. two new blue pals, together forever with muddy ol me in the middle :) by @wetdayfire

an ode to the sweaty days of summer, when the mist burns off the river by 6am and no matter the sunscreen efforts you’re lightly roasted, toasted by supper. they feel long gone now on this foggy monday up in maine, but we’ll have ourselves a few more before fall, I sure hope so ! by @wetdayfire

I first met these canoes when I was 13 years old. yesterday, John asked if I’d like them to be mine.

There’s a lot of work that goes into a trip to the allagash, before and after. this morning John and his wife, both in their 80s, helped me lay out the kitchen tarp in their driveway, to dry. Susan hasn’t been on a canoe trip in decades, but it was obvious she’d done this part hundreds of times. I’m so grateful to both of them for all the help and encouragement they’ve given me over the last decade. every day on the river, every laugh, every bite of bannock and jam is all thanks to them.

If you missed out on a trip this summer, don’t you worry. I can promise there will be many, many more. by @wetdayfire

for @highseasonmarket_, whipped up real quick and just in the nick of time in this busy busy summer season. I’ll be there Sunday only, possibly a bit bleary-eyed and sooty still from all the campfires, because Friday and Saturday I’ll be on the Allagash. Everything I love is happening all at once, it feels crazy and busy but also so happy and so good! so anyway. see you there? taken in Maine by @wetdayfire
