... was spectacular!


We left here last Saturday, payed tolls out the nose, and ended up in
a KOA outside *Mystic, CT, that afternoon. We did a little scouting
around, but no serious touring.


The next morning the Wizard of Woodstock, or whatever he's using now,
showed up to be our tour guide for the day. Tom was an absolute
pleasure to meet. What a personable guy, especially for a Marine! And,
he was also most knowledgeable about the area. He took us to several
spots off the beaten path, all of which were enjoyable. Thanks, Tom!


The next day we took off for Bar Harbor (Bah Ha Bah) and Acadia
National Park. Gorgeous place to visit. I'll post some pictures of the
park. We took a whale watching boat ride while there, and saw several
finback and humpback whales. I'll put up some pictures of those also.
None of them breached, but at least we saw some. Too many folks had
stories of spending the money and seeing nothing.


All in all a great trip!


Had a great time - glad you enjoyed it.

I'll ignore that Marine remark for the nonce. *:)


I wouldn't. I'd POST IT!

LOL!
