We're Home

We got home Friday night. It was a great trip even though we had rain, cold, and wind. The countryside was gorgeous!! Thanks for keeping up with out blog!

Hiking trail in Nova Scotia

Walking in Schoodic Point

We have driven 2400 miles so far. It was sunny again today. Breeakfast in Bar Harbor at the general store visiting with the locals, probably our best breakfast. Brought us some fresh muffins for later. We started to Sch. Pt but had to stop at the discount sweatshirt place. I have been dying to see a moose. Everyone said they are plentiful on the Cabot Trail but when it rains they don't move but stay undercover. It rained--no moose. New Bruns. the same, and northern Maine is full of moose-even in the sunshine we didn't see one. So the next best thing was to buy at sweatshirt with one on it, so I did. 40-60% off wasn't so bad.
When we go to the pt. the tide was coming in and crashing on the rocks. We walked way out on the rocks and got some great pictures. We got our drinks/muffins and saw in the sun on a flat rock and enjoyed ourselves. We walked the Alder trail. IT was a beautiful one through the woodlands. We encountered a porcupine but he ran back into the woods before we could get a picture. No moose!!!! We stopped by Ruth & Wimpers in Ellsworth on the way back and had lobster rolls. Delicious! Came back to the room and enjoyed our wine overlooking the bay. We had a plate glass window and we were inside because it was cold and windy outside.
We are heading south to Vinalhaven for 3 days and then to Ogunquit and will probably have no computer. Will finish when we get home. Right now it is pouring so we've had to change our plans. Later

Schoodic Point

We got up to sunshine (yeah) Had breakfast then walked a trail along the water in front of our motel. The tide here is 27 feet between the low/high tides. We headed down #9 which went through a few small towns where the leaves were spectacular! Nancy was driving and I was the photographer. I took a lot of pictures through the window because she couldn't stop. We did stop when there was a pull-off and then both of us took pictures. Every corner we went around we couldn't believe that the leaves were even more beautiful. You can see them change every day. We saw nature at it's best!
We drove to Schoodic Point to check it out. 7 yrs ago we walked a trail and wanted to find it again. We talked to a ranger and he gave us directions. There were no accommations anywhere around so we drove into Bar Harbor for a room. We will stay here 2 nghts right on the bay. We had clam chowder at the Log Cabin, then relaxed in our room.
