Thinking Ahead

Ellsworth, Maine

 

We think we founds very agreeable solution to the high cost of a Canadian visit to The Bay Of Fundy. We are heading today to Reversing Falls Park campground. We will stay there 2 nights. Tomorrow, we will drive to Fundy National Park, and return the same day. Today and Wednesday will be sunny. After that the forecasts for four straight days of rain. Rain dampens our camping enthusiasm.

Twice, we've sailed Tarwathie to Maine,but we have seen only a tiny fraction of the neat places. The next time we sail to Maine,we have some things to add to the agenda.

1. Sail up the river all the way to Bangor. The Penobscot Narrows are beautiful. You should google Penobscot Narrows Bridge and look at the pictures. It is really beautiful.
2. Spend more time in and around Mount Desert Isle. The famous Northwest Southeast Harbors are too crowded, but there a lots of nice anchorages.
3. Sail up the Bay of Fundy. We always ought that too risky becasuse of the tides, but we met a New Brunswick Couple at the gam who assured us that with local knowledge, it is not only doable, but that there are 300 miles of lovely cruising.

.By the way, have you noticed how deeply the verb google has penetrated our language? I think Google has completely lost control of their trademark. I even heard of a web site that asks, "what search engine did you use to google us?" I'm going to stop using the capital G in the verb.
