August 11-12, 2018 Saturday/Sunday Making Plans (Still at Sunset Point RV Park, Lubec Maine)

SATURDAY
The Hikers of the family group were gone 2-3 hours yesterday on a coastal/bog hike.  

Glen and I spent some time looking at the atlas, debating the route back to Cape Girardeau, MO.  The shortest route involves toll roads, which we tend to avoid.  We also want to avoid I-70 across southern Indiana.  All in all it looks as if we will be traveling somewhat more southern then the way we traveled here.

Forrest and Teresa joined the family group for breakfast.  We all went to the Farmers' Market, where we purchased fresh blueberries (surprise), and a blueberry pie.  We are freezing most of the berries.

Teresa and Forrest said their "good-byes" and headed to the Bangor Maine airport.  

SUNDAY

Mildred and Doug left at six this morning, going to Boston Mass. for a couple of day before heading to southwest Missouri.  Our group is dwindling.

Marcella, Jeff, and Myrna drove to Cutler Maine, about 30 minutes, to go on another hike.  

I enjoyed observing the bay in front of us this morning.  There were several species of birds, as well as a harbor seal.

Tonight Jeff and Marcella, Gary and Evelyn and us went to Campobello Island, for dinner at "Family Fisheries."  Glen and I split a seafood platter---plenty for both of us.  Then we all went to Liberty Point on the southeast end of the island.

There were harbor seals, dolphins, at least one whale, and ocean birds to watch.  The mosquitoes were large and fierce!  

The sunsets in this area are colorful. Choose your favorite view.  Taken from Liberty Point, Campobello Island, New Brunswick, Canada

The days in Maine are dwindling down to a precious few!  Stay tuned to see what Monday brings.
