Day 9

We travel along Hwy 20 most of the day across New York. Saw beautiful scenery. Traveled through New York farm land. Quite interesting. Was a relaxing drive. We are staying at a Super 8 tonight near Erie, Pennsylvania.  We received vouchers from the motel for the Casino next door.  We played and won enough to pay for our supper, with a little extra. Didn't loose it all this time. Having a good time.

We left the cottage this morning around 7 am. Had great traveling, the trees had turned more since we came here. The view was beautiful and very peaceful.  We stopped in Woodstock, Vermont and Dad got his REAL Maple syrup. Good time to walk around a little. We are in Saratoga Springs, New York tonight staying at a Comfort Inn. Ready for a break.

Day Seven

 Today we just visited the close area. We wanted to rest up for the trip heading back home.  We decided to Steam our own Lobsters.  Dad did the lobster steaming on a gas burner in the front of our cottage. He did a great job, they were really good. We just relaxed the rest of the day.

We will be leaving Maine tomorrow morning, hope to get a good days drive in. It has been a great trip visiting Maine, what a beautiful state. Glad we toured Acadia National Park on Sunday, it was closed today. Feel bad for the people that have come to visit it.

Day Six

 Today we made a day trip going to Quoddy Head Light House in Lubec, Maine. It is the Easternmost
Light house in the U.S.

This is the Head Harbour Light House in New Brunswick, Canada.  We crossed the border and did some sight seeing there.  Ate our lunch at a quaint little restaurant there also. Had a good day, the temps were in the 50's and 60's. 

We made it to our apartment,(cottage) at 4:20pm on Sat. was pretty tired, but really liked out place to stay. We unpacked and then went looking for a place to eat. We ate at a restaurant called The Fisherman's Inn.  Dad had his lobster meal, I had scallopes.  Both meals were really good. This picture is taken Sunday morning when we were ready to leave for the day.

 This is a view from in Acadia National Park. We saw some very beautiful scenery. We ate lunch
at Jordan's Pond, a place right in Acadia National Park.

 This is a picture of Schoodic Point in Acadia National Park. We saw it at low tide and then went back to see it at high tide, this is high tide.

We waited at Schoodic Point for the sun to set, it was beautiful. Sure slipped down fast, before 6:10 pm. It was getting pretty chilly waiting for the sun to set. Had a great day, we have many more pictures. The trees are really showing color. It was 68' today, beautiful day, a lot of people out and about. Can't believe how crowded it would be if it was summer season. They are saying it is really quiet now.

Day Three

This morning we started out on I-86 from Jamestown, New York in fog!!! It was pretty foggy
for several hours. Then the sun came out and we were see more color in the trees. This is a picture along I-86. We made it to Montpelier, Vermont.  We are staying in a Comfort Inn and Suites, when we got to the Motel, they didn't have any rooms left except the VIP Suite, they said if we wanted it, they would take off quite a bit, which they did, so why not! Quite the experience staying in something like this, it has a Jacuzzi, huge sitting room, huge kitchenette, bar, conference table and quite the bath,. We will probably never see something like this again. Tomorrow we will get to our apartment in Winter Harbor. The scenery is breathe taking, we have been traveling the off roads, not the Toll Roads.  Hope everyone is doing good.  Love to all.

Second Day

Well, we made it to Jamestown, New York this evening. We are staying at a Comfort Inn tonight.
We made pretty good time taking roads that weren't Toll Roads.  Saw some beautiful sights on the northern borders of the states. We hope to make it to Vermont tomorrow night. Saw the trees changing before our eyes, in Indiana, they weren't hardly turning color, as we got into Pennsylvania and New York, they were starting to turn color, really pretty scenery.
We are having a good time and things are going good.
