Day 14: Scranton, PA to Dayton, OH

Another day on the road!! On Friday we drove another 8 hours, approximately. I can’t even remember what time we hit the road… not super early or anything. Probably was around 8:30-9:00 I think. It was a mostly uneventful day. Gas stations, bathroom stops… a Subway for lunch. (Where Ethan ended up forgetting a library… Continue reading Day 14: Scranton, PA to Dayton, OH

Day 13: Acadia to Scranton, PA

All good things must come to an end, of course. Thursday morning was our day to pack it up and head towards home. First, a picture from Wednesday that I forgot to insert… the classic “pose for a picture with the National park sign” shot. 🙂 We drove by these signs repeatedly during the week… Continue reading Day 13: Acadia to Scranton, PA

Day 12: Acadia National Park

Day 12= our last full day in Acadia!! We arrived Saturday and had some afternoon/evening time, then Sunday, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. So about 4 1/2 days. This was, I think, just about the right amount of time to do the park justice. Of course, with 100+ miles of hiking trails, we barely scratched the… Continue reading Day 12: Acadia National Park

Day 10: Acadia National Park

I have to start off with a quick note of thanks to the weather gods. We have had perfect blue skies here in Acadia so far, and I’m just so thankful! (I think some clouds might be moving in for tonight/tomorrow.) But the weather has been just beautiful. It’s just like the cherry on top.… Continue reading Day 10: Acadia National Park

Day 8: Belfast, Maine to Acadia

On vacation I always start to lose track of what day it is, but I think yesterday was Saturday. Since we arrived later/after dark to our hotel in Belfast, we had decided we would take a slow morning to enjoy the place. Unfortunately, we again had a foggy morning, so the ocean views were obscured… Continue reading Day 8: Belfast, Maine to Acadia

Day 7: Coastal Maine- Bath, Boothbay Harbor, Pemaquid Point

It got a bit late Thursday night in Portland before we made it back to the hotel after dinner. I don’t think we went to bed until midnight at least. So, we were a little slower moving Friday morning than originally planned. 🙂 After hotel breakfast/packing up we hit the road north up the coast… Continue reading Day 7: Coastal Maine- Bath, Boothbay Harbor, Pemaquid Point

Day 5: White Mountains, New Hampshire

So let’s see, where did I leave off… Oh yes, our foggy/drizzly morning. I was initially a little unsure how the day would go, if the weather continued like this, because pretty much everything we wanted to do was outside! Fortunately, it did clear up. We got a later start to the day as a… Continue reading Day 5: White Mountains, New Hampshire
