Well, we've left Vermont and New England after spending a week up in the north, Burlington and another week in the south, around Bennington. We took several drives, did a little hiking, and admired the scenery. Some of the heat moved in and temps reached into the 90s, a last dying gasp of summer before cooler weather settled in.
While in Bennington, we decided to try a little kayaking. So we packed up the "wet" clothes into the dry bag, got all the little paraphanalia together and headed to a lake recommended by the visitor bureau lady. By the time we got there, it had clouded over, the wind came up and the temperature went down. Not exactly kayaking weather. So we found another back road to explore, came upon a lake not too far off the road and almost had a nice picnic. All except for the rain shower! Guess we waited too long. But the weather changed daily. One day we had the a/c on and then the comforter on the next day at night. The leaves have started to change and some are falling. Over all, our summer weather was very pleasant.
We were able to see the Boise State broncos play and beat Virginia Tech on ESPN. The last campground had cable and that was imperative for Labor Day or have the Dish back up working. Dish wasn't up but we did have cable. What a great game.
Now we are in NY and just waiting till the 19th when we move into Harrisburg. Two more weeks and we leave for a 3 week trip to Scotland. We will get last minute things taken care of before we store the trailer while we are gone. Really looking forward to the trip.

I leave you with some signs for getting around Maine. The road signs are so helpful.
