We thoroughly enjoyed Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor Campground and the friends we had made here and would have loved to have stayed a few more days.  However, the leaves are beginning to turn and we … Continue reading →

So much for the ocean view.  It rained during the night and now this morning  it was very foggy. We drove to Bar Harbor anyway, hoping the sun would come out. It wasn’t long and suddenly it appeared!  The sun! … Continue reading →

Acadia is a beautiful park.  We set out today to begin exploring it.  Unfortunately we will only be here a few days as we want to head to New Hampshire to catch the fall colors over there and it’s getting … Continue reading →

We left Camden Hills State Park this morning for Bar Harbor Campground near Acadia National Park, landing a sweet spot with an ocean view. Cruise ships dock in Bar Harbor, but there were none scheduled for today so we went … Continue reading →

The rain stopped late this morning so we decided to go back to Camden and explore it some more.  It’s a small town, only about 5,000+ but it’s a big tourist town.  We found this lobster sculpture in Rockland, the … Continue reading →

You may have noticed I’ve changed the name of the blog.  The previous name was really boring and I thought it was time for a new one. Rain is in the forecast for tonight so we set out early this … Continue reading →

We had spent the last two nights in a Walmart parking lot, but we’re ready for a break from that, so we have moved further up the coast, stopping for a propane fill along the way. This is not a … Continue reading →

We left Falmouth early this morning and went about 10 miles up to Freeport.  The first thing we saw was free RV parking!  OMG! (but not overnight).  In fact I think this whole town is free parking everywhere, including a … Continue reading →

Our first stop today was at Fort Allen Park.  We were here before, but came for another look.  There are great views of Portland and the harbor here.  This is where we took the pictures of the cruise ship and … Continue reading →

We left Old Orchard Beach this morning and drove up to a Walmart in Falmouth, a suburb of Portland.  One of the first things we saw was a city bus that goes to downtown Portland, so we hopped on and … Continue reading →

This is where we are now, in an RV park that has two names:  Wild Acres Resort and Virginia Park Resort.  Two resorts that merged last year.  It’s a very wooded resort/park and includes park models, RV sites, and tent sites. … Continue reading →

39 degrees this morning!  A bit chilly for us, so we ran the furnace for the first time this fall.  It worked fine, thank goodness.  But then the sun came out and things warmed up to around 70 something. When … Continue reading →

We did a little exploring this morning and came across this dock filled with lobster traps.  There was a restaurant right there too, but it was too early and they weren’t open. I’ve been seeing these chocolate sandwich things in … Continue reading →
