The drive northeast through Vermont to a rest stop at Dixieville Notch State Park in New Hampshire clicked off 160 miles of lush green countryside, farmland, and rolling hills making for an easy travel day in spite of a few very bumpy rough roads.
A moose near a shallow pond and a wolverine scurrying across the road were each a surprise to see as we pushed on toward Bangor, Maine. There we load up with a bag full of Maine travel brochures for exploring the coastal region in mid June.
The weather was sunny both days as we make our way eastbound approximately 320 miles through Maine’s central mountain region of dense forest.
Lots of logging trucks zoomed by in the opposite direction loaded full of timber logs.
A tall statue of Paul Bunyan with his axe confirmed we’d made it to the great north woods.
Hooray, we are both excited to be back enjoying the great outdoors away from city life.
