Cupsuptic Lake Campground near Oquossoc and Rangely, Maine
in the Rangely Lakes Region
As viewed from our campsite
Moose or bust – late dusk excursions on gravel roads looking
for moose to shoot – with the Canon AE-1, of course. Busted so far. Bear hunting
season just opened here, so we keep Michael indoors where he will be safer. (this moose image was borrowed from the internet)
A drive along the scenic Old Canada Highway that follows
much of the Kennebec River took us from Maine
into Quebec, Canada and a trip to the duty free store at the border crossing.
The Kennebec River was the first international “highway” of this region – canoe and boat trade traffic – connector between the Gulf of St. Lawrence and the Maine coastal region.
Weather has cooled considerably in Maine with lows in 30s and 40s and highs in 60s and 70s. Love it! Leaves are beginning to change colors with peak expected around October 1. That's the date we are scheduled to be in the Green Mountains of Vermont, but before then we plan to visit New Hampshire mountains for a few days.
Happy trails!
Maine is a beautiful place to be , the weather is starting to get cold. The four of us been having both our eyes open for thirty days are more, trying to spot a MOUSE , no luck yet. I am thinking that one of Earl's eye is closed in the back seat taking a nap, while I am driving. So we still have time left in Maine to spot one stay alert Earl ????????????????????
