Leaf Peeping Day Trip

We started out this morning as we did yesterday, but there was no sunshine today. It was northeast on I-95/I-295 to Fairfield were we headed north on 201. 201 is a National Scenic byway from Solon to the Canadian Border. Wyman Lake runs parallel to the highway to about Caratunk were it resumes as the Kennebec river. We ended up at the Canadian border before turning around. About a 420 mile round trip.

This was a leaf peeping trip and we we did get an eye full. The trees were in full color and we got some spectacular views around Wyman Lake. We got some good pictures and some video. By the time we got to Canada the trees were beginning to go past there peak. Several trees were well on their way to shedding their leaves. We ate lunch in Jackman which is 13 miles from the Canadian border. When we left, it was drizzling and continued to do so until we were almost back to Solon. I should have known it was going to rain though, I washed the car before we left. ha!

All in all, we had another good day to travel, just not quite as nice as yesterday. It is raining as I write this, I haven't heard the forecast for tomorrow so don't know what to expect. We are planning on taking the day off tomorrow so it can rain all it wants. As always, thanks for checking on us. We will write more later.
