Back to the Coast

Well, one night at the Agusta/Gardiner KOA has turned into three. Les’ brother is sending our ballots and Jill ordered more medical supplies, all to arrive tomorrow. We woke to rain on the motorhome, so we decided it would be a good day for sightseeing. As we left, the rain got heavy. Driving to Pemaquid Point Lighthouse, we stopped for lunch in Damariscotta, ME. That is when Les discovered he forgot to bring his fanny pack with his wallet. Jill did all the driving the rest of the day. The restaurant looked like it was straight out of Harry Potter. The dinning room was up a few flights of narrow,and steep stairs. As we finished eating the clouds began to part. The lighthouse was still partly shadowed, but Les got his DSLR camera out and started looking for photo ops. The sun finally lit up the area and he got a bunch of photos of the lighthouse and the very interesting rocky shore with waves crashing.
On the was back, we took a side trip to Fort William Henry, initially built in the 1600’s and destroyed a few years later. The reconstruction happened in 1908, using the original stones still on site. On the way back to the KOA, Les had his cell phone out and ready to take pictures along the road. He got a bit carried away. During the writing of this footprint, the rain has returned for another performance.Read more
