Birch Island is off the coast
of Brunswick, Maine. Cindy's great grandfather built the cottage
almost a century ago. Her Grammy Walley was born in the house and is
the family matriarch. We were fortunate to create our own memories
here. Enjoy, we sure did!

and, yes, just in case you are wondering, she ate every bite of it.

There is somebody in the world who
smiles as beautifully as Brooke . . . that would be Aunt Dedie.
