Vacations

After lunch we hit the park loop and were ready to see what this National Park had to offer. The funny thing was that we missed our turn AGAIN and wound up taking the road up Cadillac Mountain instead

So we hit Walmart again, spent $7 on new fuses and then hit Advanced Auto Parts and bought a pair of needle nosed pliers to remove the fuses. (Don't ask questions here, just understand that you don't

Today was the first day we were not breaking camp to drive to somewhere else. We were spending two nights in Bar Harbor because we wanted to see Acadia, we had been told that it was an amazing place and

The rest of our drive was fairly calm. We found our way back out of Deer Island and made it to Bar Harbor where we stopped into town to pick up some more local beers and possibly a fire log if we could

Eventually we made it to Stonington and found a little restaurant called the Harbor Cafe for lunch. I had a bacon wrapped hot dog, Sandra had a halibut wrap with lettice, tomato and cheese and Duke and

Since our next stop was only 2 hours away we made a decision to add two hours to our trip by driving to Deer Island, then to Acadia. The only problem with the drive was that the roads were pretty rough

The only problem we had was finding a parking spot, but taking a turn off of the main road we found a 3 hour spot and much less traffic. We leashed up the dogs and headed ot the shops, there was a dog

I think the dogs are catching on because they are now sleeping through the alarm like we have been recently. This morning they only got up when we actually did. This was a great campground, very dark

Our campground was only another 20 min down the road so we headed out to set up our tent and see what our campsite had in store for us. Also, because of the fantastic weather we bought another bundle of

As we continued through Portland we noticed a really cool pedestrian suspension bridge and pulled over to check it out. As we were getting the dogs out of the car I noticed a HUGE splash under the other

We were close to Portland Maine so we decided to stop in to a Whole Foods because it was the last one we would see until Toronto. On the way we spotted a Wal-Mart and because we needed a few things we

Although the rain had stopped before dinner the drops from the trees were still coming at 7 am when our alarm went off. The sun was out, the skies were blue but the world had not dried up overnight. As

The storm lasted about 30 min. then let up enough for us to venture out. We had picked up a pack of wood and a fire log before seeing the rain cloud and our firewood was sitting under a small tarp in the

Next we decided to find a Wi-Fi connection to work on our email for a while. Traffic on I-93 was terrible and at this point we were getting tired. This early morning stuff sucks! The traffic cleared

Our game plan for the day was to drive to Suncook, New Hampshire. We were staying in Bear Brooke State Park tonight and we had plenty to see along the way Our first big stop was Boston and on our way

There was nobody at the lake when we arrived except for the three people arranging the kayaks. We did our best to get the pups to swim but they would only go in as far as they could stand. As

We woke up around 6 a.m. to the sound of some really loud crows circling the campground looking for scraps. We were warned by the guys at the lake yesterday but you never really pay attention to someone

Along the way we found a store and stopped to get a soda. That's when we checked the GPS and realized we had taken a wrong turn and were actually going the wrong way. No big deal, instead we headed for

So we left Providence and headed for Cape Cod. Along the way we looked up a PetCo to get some food for the boys. As we were getting them out of the car this lady appeared out of nowhere and asked if they

We headed for Providence, Rhode Island the home of Brown University. We wanted to see the campus and of course pick up some stuff because, after all, we're the Browns! Providence was a short drive
