On The Road Again!

Here we are "on the road again" as Willie Nelson sings! Left Foxborough, Massachusetts this morning and headed towards Maine. Got to Wells, ME about 3 hours later. We are staying at the Riverside RV Campground.

After lunch and a quick rest, we got in the car and took a highway that follows the coastline. It was a nice drive and a gorgeous sunny day. Our path took us through lots of trees, quaint little seaside villages, and beautiful flowers and landscaped yards. We stopped at Ferry Beach and walked down to the beach and got our feet wet in the Atlantic Ocean. The water was a little on the cold side. It was fun walking along the water's edge picking up sea shells and rocks.

We stopped in a seaside village looking for our afternoon treat of ice cream. A lot of the shops and restaurants have already closed for the season, but we asked a local shop owner and he directed us to an ice cream shop about 3 blocks away and up a hill.........but it was well worth it!

The trees are beginning to get lots of color to them. The campground lady told us they are supposed to hit their peak color by Oct. 13. We have reservations to stay here for four nights so the trees should be in full color by the time we leave Maine hopefully.

Larry was hungry for pizza tonight so we kept looking for a Pizza Hut on our way back down to the campground, but none was to be found. We asked the campground lady and she told us about a local restaurant that had really good pizza so we gave it a try. We both agreed their pizza was better than any Pizza Hut pizza we have had. Delicious.... and we have some left for lunch tomorrow!

It is time to turn in so will head to bed. It may be a long night as I keep hearing trains go by quite often tooting their whistle!



We appreciate everyone letting us know how much they enjoy the blog. Hope we haven't bored any of you too much! Take care and thanks for reading our blog. Larry and Glenda
