long drive...
I didn't hustle myself getting ready this morning because it was rainy and dreary. But I did decide to head to the Down East region of Maine. First stop was Calais then on to Eastport to Machias to Bar Harbor. I planned to go on a whale watch but as I was getting to the ticket place it started pouring so I nixed that plan. So, back in the car and on to Ellsworth then on to Belfast for some wandering around. Finally, I landed in Augusta. After some shopping and a Panera sandwich, it's back to the hotel for some relaxation. More shopping planned for the morning but I might make it back to Bar Harbor for another try at the whale watch if the weather is good. Otherwise, I don't have appropriate clothing for going out on the water for nasty/rainy/dreary.
Sang at the top of my lungs for most of the trip. It was a blast. Gorgeous scenery and you could smell the trees while winding through the mountainy roads. Then once I hit Down East, the tinge of salt was in the air.
I love an adventure.
