Sep 19, 2012 - How Time Flies When You Aren't Watching the Calendar!!

Saturday 9/15 - Wednesday 9/19: For the past 4-5 days we have just been "hanging out" in the "Lakes Region" of Maine. Again, we are WOWED by the scenery and the weather has been beautiful ... but beginning to get a bit chilly (low 70s by day/ mid 40s by night). We have spent this time at the Naples Family Campground, which sits just between Long Lake and Sebago Lake. We have taken a couple of drives, but for the most part have just put our feet back and done some real R & R ... so don't have too many pictures to offer:-( As we left Bar...

Aug 25, 2009 - A Spur of the Moment Trip to Maine

Last week we reached another milestone in our preparations to leave on our trip around the US of A. We closed on our house next door in Marion. That was a relief. It took lots of work to figure out what to do with all of our stuff. How in the world do we accumulate so much stuff?

Aug 9, 2007 - Naples, ME & Casco, ME

Another 2 hr drive took us a little north of the Sebago Lake area to Naples.... Naples, ME. We found one campground that had an opening for our size RV there. After setting up we went to Casco to see Ellen & Jim Macklin, our friends from St Mary's, MD also. (They lived in Esperanza where we lived before we went to Italy.) We got to visit with both of them for a little while. They have Lake Pleasant House B&B & of course the summer season is busy for them. Fortunately, since this is a Thur. they could spend some time with us, although Jim...
