Today was another amazing drive to another beautiful sight in Maine. Our travels today took us to Boothbay Harbor. It was overcast this morning and quite cool (63 degrees) with an onshore breeze. It was cool enough for Sally and I to put on our jackets. We had a great time looking around the shops and of course had to have lobster for lunch. No dinner tonight though!! While in Boothbay Harbor we talked to a woman who suggested that we might want to go out to Pemaquid point and check out the light house. Pemaquid light house is a functioning light house that is maintained by the coast guard. Sally and I were able to climb to the top of the lighthouse although going up was much easier than coming down. The view was fantastic. The shoreline at Pemaquid point is quite rocky as you can see in the pictures. This has been a really enjoyable visit to Maine. There are so many amazing things to see here and Maine is a beautiful state. If you enjoy traveling I highly recommend that you add Maine to your list of places that are a must see. Hal, Sally and I cannot thank you enough for all the pointers that you gave us before we left Phoenix. You have helped to make this a vacation that we will never forget.

Summer is almost here and it's time for Sally and I to head out on the road again. I wasn't certain if I would be blogging about our travels again this year but we have had a lot of friends tell us that they really enjoyed the blogs from last years trip and that we should do it again this year. So as a result of everyones input, we will be blogging about our adventures again this year. For the second year in a row, Sally and I will be spending our summer in New England, camping with friends and family. Because it was still a little too warm when we returned to Phoenix last September, we ha... full info

Not even a few clouds can damper your spirit while in Boothbay Harbor. I suspect you enjoyed the shopping as well as the food. I'm also glad you got to see Pemaquid Light. I took the family there as well in '04. Who knows? Maybe you'll find a reason while in CT to make a weekend trip back to Maine this summer for even more adventures. I'm just glad that it all worked out so nice for you two.
