My son and I took a trip to Portland in July 2021, when he was a 20-year old college student. We rented an AirBnB in the historic Munjoy Hill neighborhood of Portland (which is where these cool indigo doors are located). We had a nice time walking around, eating, and shopping. We also went to the outlets in Freeport, Maine and got a bunch of clothes.
A lot of mothers say that it’s hard to stay close to adult sons once they get busy with their own families and careers. I hope that doesn’t happen to us. My son turns 25 next week. My baby. We’ve got a shopping trip planned for next Friday.

The doors are lovely—and your son is adorable. If he’s still shopping with you at 25, I think you’re safe.

Haha, May. That could be a good topic! He’s always liked new clothes. His “fit” (outfit) as he says 😊

I like the twin doors and the stained glass! Very cool!
I think you’ll stay close with your son. I wouldn’t worry.
