This was the view from our table at Champlin’s, in Galilee, on Sunday afternoon.

We decided to take a drive to the fishing village and eat fish ‘n chips while watching the boats come into Salt Pond from the ocean.

Banjo Man took a break from leaf-blowing and I fled my sewing machine to enjoy an afternoon admiring the ocean, the boats and the beauty of New England before the snow arrives.

It was a gorgeous day, a bit chilly, but the November sun was bright and the parking spaces plentiful.

I love Champlin’s fish ‘n chips more than anyone else’, due to their using flounder and not cod. Thin, flaky, with just the right amount of breading, better fish cannot be found, I dare you!

Visiting family love to come here and load up on chowder, clam cakes and fish while watching the boats, the ferry, the seagulls.

Just a little piece of New England.
