New Life in Maine

Well, It has been more than a week since I 've moved to Maine and I've already done so much. I ended up painting our living room and bedroom in order to make it more ours. I had fresh lobster for the first time...Maine lobster.

You know how you see the advertising for Maine lobster...well I got it in Maine. I was excited. I had to cook it of course because someone didn't want to put them in the pot. And then I made a Lobster Bisque afterwords with the broth left over.


This last weekend we went to Acadia National Park and camped at Blackwoods Campground. Apparently it is supposed to be difficult to get a site there. My wonderful gf managed to get a night and then we got in line the next day and got another.

While we were there we hiked Cadillac Mt. It is the largest mountain on the East Coast. We ended up doing the 4.2 Mile Hike our options we driving up, 1 Mile, 4.2 and 7.7 Mile. We figured the 4.4 would be good.





That same day we went to Sand Beach. the water was supposedly 55 degrees. It was chilly. But after hiking most of the day it was a good change of pace and very refreshing.
Later in the day we went to Thunder Hole. According to sources when the waves come crashing in it makes a thunderous sound. We're pretty sure it is broken. Maybe another time. We took a picture anyways.
The next day we hiked up Bubble Mountain and checked out Bubble rock. Later that day we saw a lighthouse and ate at a lobster pound.
The lighthouse was pretty small and the lobster pound was good but expensive of course. We headed home after that to recover, sunburns and all.

It was a great trip and I highly recommend it to anyone. This is a bikers paradise by the way. I wish we both had bikes. We saw them all over the place. And there were many trails available. Maybe next time.
