We had to stay just one more day in Vermont to see the Cabot Cheese factory and since we were still in Vermont we had to see a Maple syrup farm and we heard about this Granite quarry too so we had to see that. We didn't eat any real food until around 4pm, we just lived on popcorn, cheese samples and maple syrup product samples. If you ever happen upon any maple syrup candy, get it and put it in your coffee, delicious.
Once we were satisfied that there was nothing else in Vermont that we could sample we got the show on the road and wouldn't you know it, it started raining again. Driving in the rain for hours can really take a toll on morale but we were uplifted when we saw Sunday River Brewing Co. and we got $1.50 pints and a huge basket of sweet potato fries to keep us going. There is a Walmart not too far from Acadia N.P. and that is were we bedded down for the night.

We had just a few short days left before meeting up with Amber, so we pressed on to meet up with A's former hotshot buddy Joe and then to Falmouth, ME where our friends parents put us up for the weekend.
It was so nice to stay with Robin and Gordy, such neat people. Robin called it our "feast time" and that it was, lobster dinner feast, lobster omelet breakfast, relaxing on the enclosed porch, going to bed with a view of the stars and waking up to a view of the ocean. Completely relaxing.
Of course we wished we could stay longer but there is just too much to see. We had to keep a moving.

Next installment coming soon: Amber, Boston, Honk, Brooklyn...
