I truly miss the days when the North Country was more of a secret and the dam flows more consistant.

Why do they call it tourist season if we can't shoot em.

:laughing::laughing::laughing:
We don't have tourists around here, but I can see how you could feel that way. Your links didn't come through, try again if you will. I'm interested in looking.

You can do a lot of nice beach walking in the Old Orchard Beach south to York area. Check out Wells and Ogunquit, both have great walking beaches and lots of hotels to choose from. It's not Mid-coast, but nice. Good food too.

In June, the ocean water is still pretty cold. It only gets up to the high 60's on the best days in August :laughing: The beach walking is still fun and very relaxing.

Dave.

Thanks Dave, I had originally thought about Southern Maine. Close enough to possibly visit Boston. Looks like I could use a few more weeks vacation, that and a bunch more money.
We visited Maine once when I was a kid. I remember the water being cold

Polo.. Google Camden Maine,, you won't be disappointed..

hr3,
Camden looks great and it's close to Acadia. Also not far from the Southern areas. Thanks

You could drive by where the Old Man in the mountain .. was.. or Bar Harbor Maine ...and go to Acadia National Park. Look at all the gas that was just saved.

Acadia does look beautiful, Marty, and Bar Harbor looks like a lot of fun.

My Infantry company just had a reunion We took a day trip to Bath Ma. it was great.Lots of stuff to do an see.Ship building from years gone by.Enjoy it. Army Grunt

Good call, Army grunt, we'll put Bath on our day trip list.

Don't know that we'll be able to make it into Mass., but will definitely try and check out Kennebunkport. Maybe we can check out Squam Lake on the way from Norwich to Maine. Looks like it could be on the way.

Thanks for the link to the cabins rdln, they look like just the ticket. I've got an e-mail sent to inquire about availability. :thumbsup:



Thanks for the suggestions everyone and please keep them coming.

In the Acadia Mid-Coast area, check out the Owls Head Transportation Museum, never been there but its someplace I'd like to visit: Welcome to the Owls Head Transportation Museum, Celebrating Transportation History for over 34 Years

This is there Special Event for June 18 & 19:

Hot Rods, Customs, Muscle Cars & Antique Aeroplane Show

I don't know how far it is from where you are talking, but Mystic is really cool. That's N Ct though.

You mentioned the coast, but thought I would mention the area around Killington and Woodstock VT. Been there, very pretty!

We'll definitely look at fitting it in, Dave. We will be arriving on the 19th so we would probably be missing the special event though.

My initial business is in Norwich VT, so we will definitely be checking out the surrounding area. Look's like a beautiful area.

just a point to think about it's a much longer drive than it looks to any where!
just a heads up
