A "day trip"












It has been a week since I posted, but I will do better. School is over and the weather has apparently decided to improve. So yesterday, while Durelle and Cindy were trying to play golf on a course too wet to be playable, I joined the four letter words (the Roths the Pecks and the Dunns) as well as Bob and Linda ?? for a day trip around Cape Rosier and tiny towns on mid coast Maine such as Sedgewick and Penobscot.
The pictures appear in reverse order from what I post them, so they are in reverse order chronologically. Our first stop was the Bagaduce diner (pardon the poorly framed picture) for some famous seafood. Then there is a shot of Eleanor Roth approaching one of Maine's uncountable coves and bays. I took a picture about a mile and a half accross a bay toward Castine where Maine Maritime Academy's training ship, the State of Maine, had recently tied up. There is a picture of an idyllic cottage on the water. There was no end of photo ops. The last picture I took was of a small flock of wild turkeys. We are sometimes asked, "What do you do all summer in Belfast?" Day trips like this are a big part of the answer. The trip took six hours with good friends, good food and good views. Does it get any better than that?
