Good news! As far as we know there has been no British invasion (with the exception of The Beatles playing at Patsy's in Washburn). And no, we aren't dyslexic. We just hiked around Meyers Beach (two by land) and kayaked in a single tandem kayak around the area. The weather looked to be perfect for… Continue reading Two if by land, one if by sea

Acadia and beyond!
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!
Heading South
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
Exploring Eastport
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
Downeast and Loving It
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

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
Vermont, ahoy!
Well, to make it to all 50 states, one must make it to Vermont. We have heard the stories and folklore....beauty, cheese, quirky but wonderful people, ice cream, skiing. But, neither of us had been to Vermont before. So where does one go and what does one see in Vermont? A check with Fodors travel… Continue reading Vermont, ahoy!
Waterfalls Abound
American Falls at Niagara Falls We have visited upstate New York for the past few days and have been amazed by the beauty and the power behind the well known waterfalls in this area. Niagara Falls is the typical tourist place, but we found our niche and tried to find the beauty for ourselves. Visits… Continue reading Waterfalls Abound
The descent
Got up and had coffee on the mountain top overlooking the glacier. How cool is that. This is something that a very small number of people will experience in their lifetimes and it's cool that we got to experience this together. Brian said this was the coolest thing he'd ever done in his life. I… Continue reading The descent
Just Another Day of Hiking
Woke up later than I wanted. Heated up the tater/spam hash I made yesterday and had that for breakfast. Got started up the trail at 10:40. I saw two people up ahead of me and I didn't want them getting to the top and chasing away the dall sheep, so I hiked as fast as… Continue reading Just Another Day of Hiking
