Follow us on our 2012 Summer Adventure. Probably not as exciting as our trips from past years. We'll pretty much be in our own back yard, and within a day trip of home here in Massachusetts. Alex and I will be visiting the vast state of Maine. Every excursion of ours can be a great adventure, and since we've only visited a limited amount of Maine, there's so much for us to explore.

Please Enjoy Reading, as I enjoy sharing this with you. And feel free to share this with your friends!

Also, if you know of any place we should check out, leave me a comment and we'll try to fit it in.

Day 3 - Part 3 - Quoddy Head Light.

On the way back to route one we took a quick detour to see Quoddy Head lighthouse
Met a nice lady there from just next door Westwood Mass, she worked at the visitor center and moved up to Maine 8 years earlier and loves it. 
Seeing pictures of Puffins everywhere I had to ask where is the best place to view them. Answer on some little Island that you need to charter a boat to. Thumbs down Boo! 




Another few hours of driving brought us to Calais Maine. The further north we went the crappier the surroundings got. Downpours didn't help with shedding light on the scenes. If there was nice scenic views we couldn't see them. Winging it we had a hard time finding an affordable place to bunk for the night. Eventually we rolled into Houlton ME just after sun down. Grabbed dinner from McDonalds and headed southbound on 95 to Millinockett for the night. Long day of traveling ended with a comfortable bed and shower at the Kahadin Inn.
