0:00.0	Hi everyone and welcome to Badon Paper Podcast. I'm Olivia Mentor and I'm Becca Freeman.
0:23.5	And today is our July Book Club episode. This one is same time next summer by Annabelle
0:28.4	Monahan and I just read this book, Cover to Cover, last night. So it is very fresh in my mind
0:35.1	and I can't wait to talk about it. I can't wait to talk about it. I have just read this book for
0:39.2	the third time, which tells you how much I enjoyed it. So before we get into everything about this
0:45.5	book, let's talk about highs and lows. What is your high? My highs that I'm still in Maine, I just I live
0:50.9	here now, more Maine, more Maine ventures. My friend Molly took off last Friday, she took the day off
0:57.0	from work and we went down to Portland for like a little day trip lunch. We had lunch at Central
1:02.2	provisions, which is so, so good. And then we went up to the coastal Maine Botanical Garden up in
1:08.3	Booth Bay, which is I don't know what I was expecting. Like I was expecting it to be much smaller.

1:38.5	we went lobster rolls scouting. We were determined. So last summer when I was up here for two weeks,
1:43.8	we went to this place called McCloon's lobster shack, which we decided was like our favorite lobster
1:49.5	roll that any of us had ever had in Maine. And so on Saturday, we were like, okay, we're going to go see
1:53.7	if we can find an even better one. So we scoured all the lists online and we did all the recon and we
2:01.0	went to two places. We were maybe going to go to three. I'm sad to report that the place you
2:06.3	responded, it was called Five Islands in Georgetown Maine. It was very picturesque. The lobster roll
2:13.1	was fine. It was honestly so beautiful that it wouldn't even have mattered to me.
2:19.0	It looked so lovely. It was so fun. Sorry, it was disappointing. No, it was so
2:24.2	amazing. Part of it is the journey did not disappoint. Well, it sounds like lots of fun.
