About this blog

Marnie and Paul are a retired couple living in Arrowsic, Maine. We have enjoyed brief visits to various parts of the state, and our enthusiasm for these visits led friends to suggest we "write them up." So here are some very short descriptions of where we've been and what we did there, along with links to web sites where appropriate. We hope readers will comment on these places and add their own impressions and suggestions.
The places we visited are not listed in any special order.

Bethel

Bethel is the town for Sunday River, but we did not go there in the winter. On our two trips we stayed at B & Bs: the Chapman Inn and Austin's Holidae House. Both were fine, though Austin's "carpe diem" is hard to beat. The town is small and fun to explore, as it includes the campus of Gould Academy. There are plenty of places to eat here, but we loved the Jolly Drayman Pub so much the first time that we returned. Almost as good the second time. There are great hikes in this area. Our favorite was Step Falls, which is gorgeous and dramatic when the water runs. Lots of great things to do around Bethel.
Visited spring 2008 and spring 2011.
