Blueberry Paradise

I have tried to make collages on Picasa so many times, and I never really knew what I was doing, so I finally admitted I needed help and looked it up. Turns out, it's relatively easy! So here's my first collage, in honor of a blueberry-filled delightful afternoon in Maine.

Tricia and I were in this cute little coastal town (I think we called all of them that, hehe) called Belgrade. We ate lunch at a little cafe and we were talking to the owner before we left. She told us about this spot down the road (actually quite a bit down the road-- we weren't sure if it actually existed) where wild blueberries grew. We explored Bluberry Hill, picking blueberries, feeling like characters in a Jane Austen novel in our sundresses.

As we were heading back to Snow Pond, taking the back roads, Tricia spotted an old cemetary off the side of the road. Glowing in the sunlight, it was situated on top of a hill and spoke of old tales of another age.
