Schoodic Woods Campground

Our short time “off the grid” was filled with terrorizing moments wondering what was going on in the world and how could we let ourselves get into this predicament. Good thing that we could walk 50 yards to the bano and get almost perfect reception, emergency averted. PS…nothing happened without us.

Our day started as a lot of our days with Little Al do, another repair moment trying to figure out why our outlets would not work and how were we going to be able to make coffee and charge all of our devices. And, as usual, I was able to repair the issue within a couple of hours, don’t ask me how but I’ve learned if you punch enough buttons good things will sometimes happen and in this case they did. Another emergency averted.

After taking care of our little issues, we drove down to the end of the park to the Blueberry Hill Trailhead and started our hike on the Anvil Trail. The trail is a 400’ climb that was billed at a round trip of about 3 miles, that is if you follow the blue paint on trees and rocks.

We, however, cannot seem to follow the color blue and somewhere where we were supposed to meet a merging trail…we zigged when we were supposed to zag. Yada yada yada…we ended up on a road and turned that little hike into around 4 miles. Fun times with the McGaff’s.

Tonight we eat steak and potatoes at the camp sight, tomorrow we will defeat another color coded trail. The beauty of Acadia cannot be put into words, we’ve already planned to extend our stay.
