HEADING FOR HOME, MAINE.

Day 196 – At 6:45 a.m. this morning it was 32 degrees with snow flurries. We packed up for several days of traveling – the things you will need during those days of going from one campground to the next get packed away in accessible places for easy unpacking & repacking for the next day of travel. Everything from coffee-making supplies to toothbrushes to clothing changes to cat food, etc. gets put away towards the front of cupboards. The things you don’t use as often get placed in the back. At first when you’re doing this, it takes a lot of time, but after awhile you can whip right though packing & unpacking.

GOOD LUCK, KAREN! HOPE IT GOES WELL. THINKING OF YOU.

Day 3 – It was 37 degrees this morning when Rob got up and a bright, sunny day. Today we will go to Freeport, Maine & spend the night. We’ve got some shopping to do, and the huge LL Bean complex of stores is located there.  Their outlet store is amazing, and we never cease to find great deals when we stop, although we do try to limit ourselves to just getting things we need (since retirement). One of our favorite cities, we really like Freeport, and one of our favorite restaurants is located at the Harraseeket Inn. You can’t imagine how good their lobster soup is; they call it Lobster Stew, and it has lots of extremely tender, fresh lobster in it, https://www.harraseeketinn.com/,
