We drove for 6 hours on US 2, a two lane road, to get to Bangor and a really nice RV Park called Pumpkin Patch. The first thing I noticed was we were next to a Prevost that looked like a train. It has to be 45 feet long and I noticed this morning they trailer a car behind them as well. I can’t imagine!

Anyway, we got here at around 3 pm yesterday, got hooked up and went into Bangor. We were told about a very good restaurant on the Penobsco River and went for a late lunch/early dinner to celebrate our arrival in Maine. I had very good lobster bisque and Jim had a crab and havarti sandwich while we watched the scenery on the river. Bangor looks like many larger cities and does not have the charm we saw in Montpelier.

The 46 degree night-time lows have caused the trees to begin their leaf changes and every so often we see a beautiful yellow, reddish-orange tree in the midst of lots of green. If it continues, this should be a beautiful fall season filled unforgettable vista and sights. We only have 3 hours to drive today to get to Lubec, Maine which is the eastern most city in the U.S. and we are anticipating some spectacular sun rises. Because we are so much farther east than in Ocala, sunrise here this morning was just after 6 am. Lubec may be even earlier. We’ll see.
We have seen this plant all through this area (VT to ME) can anyone identify it for us? We have been too lazy to ask the locals.
