This summer flew by. We got the van out in May and down into southern Utah for a few days. We didn’t come up for a breath of air again until the middle of August and made a quick trip to Canada and the Eastern Seaboard. We saw some beautiful scenery, but I’m a little spoiled with all the amazing landscapes close by in Wyoming and Montana. But, we did get some delicious seafood, which isn’t quite as easy to come by at home and a real treat.

We started out our day in Bar Harbor with a leisurely stroll along s rocky and windswept coastal trail. Despite the gray skies, the scenery was absolutely stunning. Before leaving for Acadia National Park we enjoyed a lunch of whole lobster and steamers – can’t visit Maine without doing that, can you? But the highlight of our visit to this area was Acadia National Park. I have a special place in my heart for our National Parks and Monuments, and Acadia did not disappoint. The scenery, especially the rugged coastal area was breathtaking. Thunder Hole lived up to its billing, but the entire coast was stunning. I would love to return on a dry and sunny day to better explore more of this magnificent park.
