This Fall we're heading back out west. COVID will be in our thoughts as we plan for adventures while we stay safe! Our plans are to head first to Colorado, then zip over to Utah. Lots of hiking and biking are planned along our route.

Ahhhhhhhhhh......ACADIA !

Back to Acadia National Park after only four years.....we had forgotten what a wonderful place this is.  Lobster, wild blueberries, ocean, rocks, trees, camping, biking, hiking......WOW, all good.








This time we spent 5 nights at Blackwoods Campground, and then moved to Seawall Campground in a quiet part of the island for three more nights.  To add to our terrific time, our friends Marc & Susie, joined us in their new trailer (and the first time for them dry camping).

We biked over 40 miles of carriage paths, stopped at Jordan Pond
(twice!) for popovers & blueberry sweets, rode many miles on the Island Explorer buses with and without our bikes, wandered Bar Harbor (good ice cream), and enjoyed our walks along the ocean crashing on the granite rocks.


After our move to the Seawall campground, more biking and more eating.  Yes, our eating was definitely one of the highlights of this visit.  First the Seafood Ketch in Bass Harbor (foggy biking and viewing).  Then, Thurston's Lobster Pound in Bernard, the best.  And we biked there in only 4.2 miles...
