THE RAIN IN MAINE GOES MAINELY DOWN THE DRAIN!

People we meet along the way, when noticing the Saskatchewan license plates and asking about the trip, often remark "Well, GOOD for YOU (pronounced Yew oo)!"   Little do they know what fun we're having and that the only difference between travelling now and 20 years ago is that, now it's more important to shave your chin than it is to shave your legs.

We're off to Bar Harbor today to experience more of the Maine coastline and then on to New Brunswick the following day.  It's raining this morning and it was such a treat to wake up to the sound on the roof.  It reminded me a lot of Bragg Creek days.  Mighty glad I got the leak in the roof sealed.  It will be a good day to travel since the sun visors on the motorhome are remarkably small considering the size of the window.

There must be a motorcycle convention somewhere in the area because we keep running across great herds of bikes on the road.  Riders here are not required to wear helmets, which looks a little strange.  It is also the law here that you only have to wear a seatbelt if you are under 18.  Good arguments for public healthcare, eh?

To be continued.....
