When someone mentions amenities, we usually think of coffee machines, shampoo, refrigerators and microwaves. These things are wonderful, and necessary. However, there are amenities that come with a particular room or a specific hotel. They will add quality to your stay on Mount Desert Island, far more than any kitchen appliance can bring.
I list five most priceless hotel amenities below, in order of importance. Before you choose a hotel to stay on Mount Desert Island, decide which of these are most important. Then do the math, and figure out whether the difference in price is worth it.
#1: Special Consideration for those traveling with you
Before anything else, choose amenities which will help meet your special needs, and the needs of your traveling companions.
Dead end jobs are not meant to be a place to settle down. They are stepping stones as you make your way toward a great job you can pour yourself into with joy.
Then in mid-July of 2019, my transfer from Walmart Chicopee to Ellsworth allowed me to be closer to my family. I jumped right in to a full-time position at Walmart, with benefits. The move came with a big plus: I arrived just in time to enjoy the Maine summer weather I missed so much.
A “comfortable” position
Working as a CAP2 stock worker at Walmart is like a gym pass where they pay you to work out all day. I was in the best shape in my life! And I was really good at unloading the truck, so I did it a lot. God blessed me with a lot of great friends among coworkers and customers, friends who are still my friends today.
Before I continue, I must say that this move back up to Maine would not have been possible without the help of Ellsworth Assembly of God. A family in the church allowed me to live in their trailer in the church parking lot. What a blessing it is to be part of a church family that truly cares for strangers, and each other!
If you don’t have such a family, I really encourage you to find one as soon as you can.
Lots of people love their cup of coffee, or tea, in the morning. Some brew it themselves, while others pick up their favorite blend at their favorite store. For others, an instant coffee single does the trick.
But in my home, I’m a huge fan of a cup or a glass of tea. In Chad, Africa, tea drinking is very simple, very sweet, and very hot. Culturally, tea is served to welcome old friends and celebrate new acquaintances.
Since I have returned to the US, I have consumed more iced tea than hot tea. And thankfully, the Bar Harbor Tea Company has the resources and accessories for both kinds.
The Bar Harbor Tea Company gives you a sense of coastal Maine coziness. When you step inside for a closer look, you will be amazed by the colorful display of teapots that are lined up to greet you. It should be easy to find a teapot or teacup to match your personality, due to the wide variety of colors and styles available.
