Here's a snippet of part of our trip to Maine. I did not keep logs prior to this.
... 180 mile trip to Acadia National Park - Bar Harbor section. The park is located in several sections of coastal main. Yesterday, Schoodic Point Acadia Park was a 280 mile trip from where we are located. My camera cannot do justice to the magnificent vistas! Very dog friendly up here.
At the restaurant today, the waitress sat us outside, Sunny on his leash next to the table and was served a bowl of water while Al ate crab cakes and I had Lobster bisque, yummmmm. For dinner tonight, I bought some fresh lobster at the grocery store, mixed it with a little mayo and had it on crackers for dinner.
Two more days here and then we head south to Booth Bay. Al checked out the Catholic Church in Belfast and Mass will be at 4:00PM tomorrow. He always gets me to the church in time

Beautiful sunsets, lobsterbakes on the shore, a private patio for lounging and reading, all this just feet from the Sheepscot River. Enjoy your morning coffee on the patio or by the water's edge while watching local lobsterman at work. Canoe or kayak around the nearby islands or just explore the coastline. There are ospreys, kingfishers, and great blue herons over the water and hummingbirds, cardinals, and goldfinches in the perennial gardens. Beautiful and quiet area just minutes from Boothbay Harbor. The botanical gardens are a brief walk from the house, and several land trust hiking trails are just a short drive or boatride away. Great spot for boating and a canoe and kayak are available. Public boatramp nearby and a private mooring is also available.
In the fall the foliage is spectacular, the town is quiet, and the Chamber of Commerce sponsors a huge fall foliage fair in October with crafts, food, music,antique train rides, and antiques.
