Our first day in Maine was spent
at Baxter State Park. Our son,
Jeffrey, drove us over 100 miles to
this big 200,000-acre wilderness.
There were many campsites and
trails throughout the park. We saw
many trucks hauling logs as a
number of paper companies are
located here.

Penobscot River. I found many of
their names qp usual such as:
Mattawamkeag, Piscataquis,
Passadumdeag, and Wytopitlock.
We had to walk over a split log
pathway to a grassy pond. The
walking was treacherous as it was
over a swamp. I managed to catch
my foot on a tree root and sprawled
flat without breaking myself or my
fishing pole. When we finally got to
the pond, we had a big pile of logs
to clamber over to reach the water.
The men caught a few small ones
but had to throw them back and I
didn’t get any. The highlight was
when Jeffrey fell in with a tyg
splash. I should have had my
camera.
The next day we tried another
river and we got three nice small
mouth bass which we ate for lunch.

In the afternoon we drove to Bar
Harbor and Acadia National Park.
It was our first glimpse of the rock
bound coast of Maine. We walked
around the summit of Mt. Cadillac
and it was very windy.
In the evening we had a lobster
meal. We weren’t too impressed as
after paying a big price, we then
had to work to crack the shell and
dig out the morsels of white meat.
But, a visit to New England

lobster meal.
We enjoyed seeing the campus of
the University of Maine where our
son is a professor. However, when
we got to his house and got a phone
call from our other son, Philip, we
were surprised. He had driven
from Chicago to visit us and we
were in Maine!
Next week I’ll write about our
trip home.
