After spending hours in beautiful Acadia National Park, we took a short drive over to the town of Bar Harbor. Audrey, Helena and I walked into just about every store we could until we came across an unreal painting gallery. The gallery was full of work that had been painted by artists who travelled to Bar Harbor specifically to paint. Sitting at a desk in the corner of the store was the sweetest old man, who talked to us the entire time we were in the shop. He asked us about our majors and hometowns, and then shared his own story with us. His wife owns the gallery, and he occasionally manages it for her. They met their freshman year of college at Harvard and have been together ever since. We talked to him for well over 20 minutes, where we learned many details about the paintings and their artists. After taking in the paintings, we walked out of the Argosy Gallery with knowledge of the Bar Harbor paintings and a new friend:)
