TELL ME YOU PICKED THAT UP!!
:)  Actually I spotted them (about a dozen) hiding among the other rocks/stones in Gary & Kay's (gspren) flowers/shrubs.  Kay was excited to know that she had them. 



 
This was hanging in the restaurant where we enjoyed Lobster Rolls for lunch.

We will begin tomorrow with a boat trip out of Kennebunkport.

Yes I did wave Hello to President George Bush and Barbara.  The three flags flying indicates that he is in residence.


 
The front view or their home.


 
The white buoys indicate the no-go zone during times of unrest.


  
The Captain gave me a turn piloting the boat.  Maybe it was the FF hat??    :)

Tomorrow we will be on the "big" boat and go 20 miles out.

Don't know how I missed this thread for so long. Guess I need to devote more time to  smiley_book2_page the FF. It was great finally getting to meet Gary, Lynn, Joe and their lovely wives Kay and Pat.

Seems no one took the bait on the Assawoman sign photo MM. I was guessing that the goat would get a snicker out of that.

Thanks Gary and Kay for the hospitality. I was wracking my brain trying to think of something to bring along. Came up empty (not unusual for my brain...). Now it dawns on me. Scrapple! But I don't think it would do to well in the mail.

By the way. I'm not really that short. Joe and Gary are REALLY TALL. That's my story anyway, and I'm sticking with it.  ;)

20 miles out must being fishing or a whale watch boat. Cause they can't pull lobster traps on Sunday and the lobsters are inshore by now or should be with water temps in the low 60s

Magicman

Yup, we are doing the touristy things and Whale Watching is a touristy thing.   ;D

I had to catch up with Pat on the lobsters so....


 
I got myself TWO.

Now the proper way or my to eat lobster is. I. Get everything thing I want out of it put it in its own bowl then get ride of the shells go wash your hands. Now comes the fun part watching those that have never seen one before try to attack  it. And never ever let it squirt on anyone else. Shredders are easier to get apart and the meat is sweeter but there isn't much in them. Hard she'll having a 2 lb. Hammer helps

Now you can use that tool on your belt.  :D

I don't think that I did too badly "shucking" those two, especially after watching other folks attacking theirs.  They were OK, but quite frankly I/we prefer to eat Lobster Rolls.  I am sure that is what we will get today after we get back from the Whale Watching boat ride.

We will continue our travels North up Hwy 1 tomorrow.  We will also be on the lookout for a parking spot for the camper when we make the Bar Harbor day trip.

snowstorm

are you looking for a campground on the island or just a place to leave it for the day?

snowstorm

a camping spot on the island without reservations may be a problem. there is also a campground on the water in searsport. about 50 miles from bar harbor. dont forget southwest and northeast harbor

Bruno of NH

What about hermit island
I camped there once nice place

My kids are at hermit island right now on vacation. I'm not sure but I think that is a tent only campground but could be wrong.

You could boil it for a week and I still wouldn't eat one.

Yup, I know that there is no possibility of camping on the island itself and probably would not want to if I could.  I'll just be looking for a place to park, hopefully have AC to plug into, and then make a day trip to the island.  50 miles away is no problem.

haha same here!  MM if it's on your way stop in for a visit to the sawmill here in Fort Ann, NY.  There is a whole mess of campgrounds around here (Lake George NY is very popular camping destination its just over the hill) or you could park it at the sawmill as long as you taint skeered of rattlers or coyotes lol
Boy, back in my day..

We made our Whale Watching trip today.


 
Leaving out this morning we passed by the Lobster boat that we were on Yesterday.


 
President George Bush's yacht.


 
And the Secret Service boat that accompanies him.

And then a Total Surprise!!!!


 
I had no idea that thecfarm had his yacht anchored in Kennebunkport.   :o


 
Our tickets to ride today.


 


 
It was a perfect "Blue Sky" day.  We saw water spouts (blows) and several whales ~12 miles out which was the furthest that we had to travel.  It met all of our expectations and was a wonderful day.


 
Then back to Kennebunkport.


 
For Lobstah Rolls.


 
And Peanut Butter Pie Ice Cream.

Tomorrow we head North on Hwy 1.

You may want to try patten pond campground in ellsworth ,maine. Its a short drive to the island from there. Nice campground on a small lake. You could park here at my place if you want. I am a short drive from Belfast if you google it. Jackson is the town . I have electric you can hook to. I just wouldn't be that good of a tour guide unless you want to ride in the westernstar!!!

Bush's boat looks like a back cove. Nice to see he bought a boat built in maine

I was just reading my Delorme Maine Atlas and Gazeteer.  They have 2 full pages of campgrounds and phone numbers if you need them.  If you run across an Outdoor outfitter they would probably have a copy.
I havent checked but its probably online also.
