It’s a shame we can’t take any major road trips right now (thanks to our wee one) since this week’s giveaway has us itching to head north to Kennebunkport, Maine. That’s because Spaces Kennebunkport– the shop behind today’s prize- embodies just the type of comfortable seaside home accents that Sherry and I love. Never mind that we can barely spell the name… we still want to eat up everything in their store. Have no fear if you also can’t make it out to K-town. Spaces Kennebunkport has an awesome

Interesting names are escaping me…we do live in a town called Queen Creek, which is lacking in anything resembling a creek unless you count the wash behind our neighborhood.

Maine Me!
My towns have been pretty normal (well, Native American names are normal here), but whenever I travel around the state I can’t help but giggle when I see signs for Coxsackie. :-D Sorry, just can’t help it!!
Nikki says
MAINE ME!
I grew up just down the road from you guys in Goochland, VA. Nobody believes me when I tell them the name…
Kate Robertson says
Thats so exciting guys. Try not overpack- see if your destination can supply anything, like cot(crib), stroller etc, as the car can get pretty full… My mum and mother-in-law have a stash of stuff for when the grandkids visit. Makes it easier. Most motels etc can help too.
YoungHouseLove says
Thanks for the tips Kate! So good to know.
xo,

Whenever we visited florida as a kid, my mom and I would joke about the name “Kisssimee” or something like that. We’d yell out “KissiMe!” and give each other big kisses.

Allie says
MAINE ME!
I live in the Lehigh Valley, PA. The names of many of the towns in our area would lead you to believe we’re all very holy…like Bethlehem, Emmaus, and Nazareth.

Big Bone Homo Creek in Mississippi! Don’t live there, but am amused by the town name!

I like that the University of Miami of Ohio is not actually in Miami, OH but in neighboring Oxford, OH. Confusing all around!
