Brenda and I are enjoying a one-day vacation near Bar Harbor, Maine. It is beautiful here, especially in Acadia National Park. We are even more anxious to find a way to spend some time in the Maritimes.
I’ll drop Brenda off at the Bangor Airport in the few hours, and then head back over to Castine for another gig — a curriculum conference with Maine teachers. More about that later…
…
I was there roughly a year ago on my honeymoon! Enjoy.
Dave,
I grew up in Maine, go to Acadia every summer and got married just across the harbor from Castine. I’m hoping to sneak out of suburbia, CT in a couple of weeks to get up there myself. I hope that you didn’t get lost at the airport in Bangor. It’s enormous…
I was on Cadillac Mountain a few days ago

Hi David – I’m in your session right now and you just called our attention to your blog. I’m from the Bar Harbor area originally. So since you mentioned getting over to the Maritime Provinces, I wanted to make sure you know about the ferries.
