Follow me, Miss B, our two cats (Dora and Boog, aka. The Misfit Crew) on our crazy epic adventures aboard the SV Haven, a 38' Kadey-Krogen.
We almost missed the boat! But...we made it and had an enjoyable ferry ride out to Monhegan Island. An island that is known for "wind swept cliffs and painters out with their easels everywhere you look." While we didn't see painters everywhere we looked, we did see quite a few as the day progressed. And… Continue reading Monhegan Island
Well, many travelers will tell of the magic and beauty of Camden, Maine. The town's Dam Falls, Mount Battie and harbour did not disappoint. We were lucky to see the town in brilliant sunshine and in fog (as well as low and high tides) to truly enjoy what she has to offer. We also decided… Continue reading Camden and the Pemaquid Lighthouse
Sometimes you just need a little bit of country and land to even out your time spent on water. We've had an amazing time in Brooks, which is close to Belfast. Just outside the Farmers Market in Belfast Young's Lobster Pound was visited frequently for fresh seafood. We also visited Holbrook Island Sanctuary near Castine… Continue reading Belfast and Brooks
When people talk about Maine, they often mention the beauty of the ragged coast line or the changing colors of the foliage in the fall. They often will mention lobster and ....Acadia Narional Park. Located on Mount Deset Island (primarily), the park is open to 3.5 million people annually (per their website) and provides some… Continue reading Acadia and beyond!
The Fox's Hollow yurt One of the things we really wanted to do during #roadtrip2021 was to really find something different. Well, mission accomplished! Don't forget to duck when heading out! Mount Desert Island is home to Bar Harbor, Acadia National Park, the MDI marathon (run by Barbara in 2012), Northeast Harbor, Southwest Harbor, and… Continue reading Yurt Life
Sunrise in Eastport looking over to New Brunswick Just kidding. We mostly headed west today. 😁 But the day started out with a beautiful sunrise watched from our hotel. The toes got cold, but the hearts were warm. Then we began the journey west to Millbridge. The one and a half hour journey was expanded… Continue reading Heading South
After getting some much needed work done, we went to explore Shackford State Park located near Eastport proper. We started out on the Beach Trail and kept walking along the shoreline until some lines, water bottles, and a big rock indicated that there may be a path back. We finished the visit reading about the… Continue reading Exploring Eastport
We made it! Eastport, Maine, has been on our list for almost 15 months, and we finally made it! We stopped at Reversing Falls State Park on our way north. Our arrival was at low tide -- although we had not planned it that way -- so we got to see the tide starting to… Continue reading Downeast and Loving It
When we were kids, watching cartoons, and dreaming of what we would become as adults, who didn't play cops and robbers or spies? But how amazing is it that we can use our phones or watches to get messages and directions on how to get places? Stephen King's house in Bangor Today we explored Bangor,… Continue reading Calling Dick Tracey
Johnny Cash had something when he was talking about all the places he'd been. Today, while en route from Stowe, Vermont, Jason got this song stuck in his head and well, it does seem fitting. Starting the week in Central Ohio and ending Thursday in Bangor, Maine, we have covered some ground. Some coffee and… Continue reading I’ve Been Everywhere, Man
