Margaret & I chose a different sort of vacation this time – 1000 miles of driving with no flights, airport delays, or other hassles!
We headed north into Maine, and spent “slow time” seeing beautiful scenery and enjoying fabulous weather 
There’s over 140 pictures in the Gallery, or you can peek at a few highlights here … as always, click any pic for a bigger version.
Most of our trip was up the coast, so there’s lots of pictures of harbors & coastal scenery. Such as:
Inland at Acadia there was lots more water, including a wonderful (but hot!) three mile walk around Jordan Pond, with stone steps over streams into the pond, and a tree-covered boardwalk:
Many animals too, including a snake at Jordan Pond, seals during the boat trip out of Bar Harbor, and Alpacas at Winters Gone farm:
Other great things included an out-of-the-way jigsaw puzzle store, and all the B&Bs we stayed in (including at Bar Harbor and at Kennebunkport on the way home), the Kennebunk Plain – unusual since most of Maine is tree-covered – and the Penobscot bridge with aerial views from the top:
Oh – and a sunset!
A great trip
