Am I a Mainer??

Something pretty neat happened as Joseph and I wrapped up today’s hike on the Eagle Lake carriage trail. It was a very cool ending to a full and good day! But first, we stopped at the Post Office […]

Joseph and I meandered up the coast from Portland. We usually make a stop at the tiny lobster shack called Reds Eats in Wiscasset. But the line is usually really long (about an hour’s wait) and we usually […]

My Friend Robert

Leaving Rockport around 11am, we stopped for breakfast and then headed for Maine. By midday we were at the liquor store in New Hampshire where we loaded up on two weeks worth of vacation alcohol. You might think […]

Gorham Mountain

The weather says that we’re going to have rain on and off for the next few days. I don’t like to hike over wet boulders, so we decided to take a hike up Gorham Mountain. It’s a good […]

Connors Nubble Challenge

My Favorite Acadia Hike Joseph and I do this hike, Connors Nubble, almost every year. We didn’t last year because I hurt my shoulder on the first day of vacation and I didn’t want to put any stress on […]

My Barr Treat!

I waited years. Even tried to grow one….thought it wouldn’t happen. But, finally! I saw one!! Joseph and I were in Bar Harbor at 8am so we could get to Barr Island. It’s a small island across from […]
