12 Towns in 48 Hours









We spent two days exploring various towns on the mid-coast of Maine. First stop was Wiscasset, home of "Reds" where one can get the "best" lobster roll around and the antiques are great. Grandma would have been impressed. We had lunch in Damariscotta, drove through Rockport and Rockland and then nestled into our B&B in Camden. What a lovely place The Hartstone Inn is. Champagne and chocolate covered strawberries were waiting in our room. Yesterday we went to Belfast for cappuccino and vintage martini glasses and then drove to the top of Mount Battie where the views are unbelievable. Did you know that Camden has a Toboggan Run where you can get up speeds close to 35-40 miles per hour??? We'll be back. Once the flakes start to fall....

I saw Red's on the Food Network. It was making me yearn for sweet lobster. Well, married life looks good so far but remember its not all strawberries and champagne. Its also martinis, lobster rolls, scallops wrapped in bacon, little BnBs,Big fun, Big fights, compromise, yea and yech, yin and yang, dolce and gabbana.

Sara and Dave: I'm glad you had a good time. I'll look for more info & pix on your Globe blog. Here are my important questions: Having recently been charged $17.50 for a lobster roll (basically lobster and mayo on a generic burger roll) at Cap'n Simeon's, I want to know how much one pays for the best at Red's and whether Red's roll is similar to Simeon's. Marg, did you make that lobster salad yet?
Also, how come you guys drove up Mt. Battie when you could have walked? Was it raining?

What a great time, exploring the Mid-coast of Maine. Great shopping, food, photo ops, an amazing time. I highly reccommend a visit by all. When is the next big family event?? I was so happy to see everyone over the weekend and I am thrilled to officially be a part of the family.
