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.

York Harbor

We took advantage of a great deal via Travelzoo for a night at the York Harbor Inn plus $25 dining voucher for $89 plus tax. At the end of February there were not many guests at this beautiful old inn, although many locals came to the inn's excellent pub for drinks and dinner. Our room in the main inn was small but complete and immaculate, with a view across the harbor if you stood up. The staff was pleasant and helpful. On a sunny day we crossed the street to the park and descended to the cliff walk. The walk is gorgeous, though footing is not always smooth. That evening we ate in the pub, as the main dining hall was not open. However, they had a full menu and the quality was first-rate, as was the free breakfast the next morning. Years ago we had a family trip to the Inn on the Blues at York Beach. That was fun, but this was a more mature visit!
