My google group is in the toilet. Don and I are back to posting full
time here. Talk about bi-polar, eh? We claim how much we hate this
group, and want it's demise but still post here as much as we can! I'll
be here insulting and name calling, because I have to do it somewhere.
If you call my wife Karen, she'll tell you why, she's a Dr. Dr. Dr. you
know. And if any of you mooks say BOO to me, I'll **** in my pants and
call the cops on you. I'm a coward like that.

Sure is. That's what it's all about. Work hard. Save your money. Retire
and enjoy doing what pleases you.

Thanks John, don't know if you are referring to the scenery or the
boat but the two certainly go well together. :-)

Have you ever been to Acadia National Park on Mt Desert Island? It is
one of our favorites and there is a lot of scenery similar to the
picture in and around the park. Old man Rockefeller had his summer
place near there and he could afford to go anywhere he wanted.

Took a motorcycle ride up to Acadia National Park, and a couple years ago my wife and I went up with
the trailer. We loved the area, the weather was great. and the view from the top of Cadillac
Mountain was spectacular. We spent one day 'whale watching' from a boat out of 'Bah Hahbah' and saw
bunches of whales and puffins. We found a little restaurant down on a pier in one of the little
coast towns (not Bar Harbor) where I had a four pound lobster. Wow!

I had asked a young ranger at the park where to find a good place for lobster. He said he couldn't
answer the question - against the rules. I asked if he had a girlfriend. "Yes," he answered. I
asked, "If you were going to take her out for lobster, where would you take her?"

"Now *that* I can answer," said he. Then he told us about this little shack on a pier in some little
town close by. What a meal.

The whole time I was there I wished for one thing - my boat!

Great place. We rented a house just down the road from there one
summer. It came with a canoe and we also brought an inflatable with
my old Merc outboard.

No, that place is way too big. The place we went was just a shack on a pier, maybe 12' by 20' with
two picnic tables on the inside and two on the outside. They had a small counter with a tub full of
lobsters behind it. They sold only lobsters, corn on the cob, and french fries. Amen. Nothing else.
At that time, the large lobsters were $8/lb. I paid $32 for my four pounder. The claw meat was as
big as the whole palm of my hand. (I wear an extra large glove.) I don't even remember what town it
was in. Little place. Not a tourist place at all.

Good lobsters though!
