East to Maine 2023

 June 26th.  It was overcast all day.  Rode in rain about 15 minutes of the day, but it was misty. light rain most of the day.  The few breaks that we took were at least dry.  Maine does have Mosquitoes and shortened up on stop. In and out of New Hampshire in 2.5 hours.  Small state.  The cable bridge crossing into Bucksport, Maine had an observatory atop one of the supports. Very little traffic overall and a nice sedate pace to actually see some of what we were riding through.   We are at an Airbnb west of Acadia NP.  Nice house and setting.  In the country, complete with fresh baked cookies for us to enjoy. Tomorrow will be a loop back to the Airbnb.

 June 25th.  They let us back into the states.  Very smokey at the start of the day, reminded Kevin and I of our 2020 west coast trip. Had lunch out side of Lake Placid at The Tail of the Pup BBQ.  Very good. Onto the Cliffside Coaster at the Bobsled hill.  I tried to go full throttle down, but my left demon made me brake at a few spots.  At least Kevin did not hold me up.  He got a 2nd FREE run because the 2 in front of him made him brake.  He said once the sled actually applied the brakes due to closeness of the slower car. On to some good roads.  Vermont speed limits are limiting.   Once again it got into the mid 80's. Time to relax and get tomorrows adventures loaded.
