Sat 15 Sept

Last morning in Vermont. Full house at the B&B so lots of nice conversation over breakfast with some lovely people from Massachusetts and New Hampshire. Another very filling breakfast with pumpkin muffins saved for the journey. More Fitbit woes - this new one doesn't want to hold a charge for even a full day or night. Had to email Customer Service yet again. I'm afraid I'll be labeled a chronic complainer, but I'd just like a unit that works! We had a little light rain on the ride from Vermont to Maine, on and off clouds and sunshine. The forecast here in Maine is cool and sunny for at least the next couple of days. We will go into Bar Harbor tomorrow after breakfast for 11 am church and will explore the busy town a bit, then hopefully get in a short afternoon hike. Maybe the lobster pound for dinner. Tonight we arrived at the lovely inn just in time for wine hour. We met some of the other guests and after settling in, walked down the street to a small restaurant for just a cup of soup and dessert. We had filled up at lunch on fresh lobster rolls at a wonderfully quaint roadside cafe on US 2 in Rumford, ME.
