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.

Southwest Harbor

After several months of stay-at-home, we broke out and stayed for two nights at the HarborView Motel and Cottages. We had a cottage (#6) facing theharbor with a great porch. We cooked ourown breakfast and lunch and got takeout from Charlotte's Lobster and Gott's Store. The fried clams from Charlotte's were so over-fried they were almost ashes. The Gott's pizza was good. Before we checked in, we walked the Wonderland Trail, an easy walk with the sea at the end. The next day we climbed St. Sauveur Mountain and Valley Peak for some great views. We found the hike less easy than it had been the last time we were there--30 years ago. In the afternoon we walked the Ship Harbor Trail, which was perhaps the highlight of our trip.
