It’s been a few minutes since we’ve been out in Little Al, about 4 months to be exact…time to take the little fella out! Since we’ve taken our last trip: Hurricane Helene scared us back to Texas. College football became my passion. I lost my passion for college football, for this year. I am closeContinue reading “We’re Coming Little Al!”

We spent our last day in Mystic, CT checking out the historic local scene then heading to bankrupt the Foxwoods Resort Casino in Mashantucket. Turns out they have more money than us so the lights were still on when we left, maybe next time. Overall we had a great trip, we’ll take Little Al backContinue reading “Made It Home”

It’s tough to complain about the hot weather when the hot weather is in the 80’s, but as a professional cool weather chaser I must. Our plan, our only plan, was to visit Acadia National Park then work our way back home while enjoying comfortable weather along the way. The hot temps and swarming touristContinue reading “Hot Times at The Festival”

On Wednesday we drove south to Wells, ME so that we could get in some day trips to check out beach life in that area. Our plan (loosely used verbiage) is to stay here a couple of nights while we figure out where our next adventure will take place. The unseasonably temperatures in the highContinue reading “Day Tripping”

We assumed that on a Tuesday there would not be much of a crowd but we were completely wrong because everything on the west side of Acadia was packed. Rather than fight the crowd waiting for a bus we drove to a remote parking area and hiked into the sightseeing area we just “couldn’t miss”…perContinue reading “Crowded Day”

We made our reservations for Acadia with the required 2 month time frame and could only come up with 3 nights so yesterday we had to move. We were able to get on the alert for an additional 1 night but decided to drive to the Bar Harbor side and see what’s happening over there.Continue reading “Bar Harbor”

We spent our Anniversary Day like any other day by hiking and checking out all the great scenery around Arcadia National Park. First we took a nice 6 mile hike to Wonsqueak Harbor where we ate lunch then home to Little Al for a rewarding 30 minute nap. Since we don’t have any shower facilitiesContinue reading “Great Day On Four-O.”

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 asContinue reading “Schoodic Woods Campground”

Things I learned on art day. Maine is the first place that the sun rises in our country, that is why artists love to paint there. There are 3 generation of Wyeth painters with 3 distinct painting styles. Marc’s favorite artist of the 3 is Jamie, Joan’s is Andrew. No matter how hard I try,Continue reading “Art Day”

It started with a conversation Joan had with Sheila on Monday night, “you are going to be in Andrew Wyeth territory, I love him.” That little conversation turned into an overnight plan on Tuesday, I mean after all how big of a state could Maine actually be…surely we could visit Andy on the way. GuessContinue reading “Made It To Maine”
