The Maine part of the trip is wrapping up, hehe. I grabbed the Acadia park map and was Mainely filled with all sorts of emotions, hehe. The last national park of the trip. I will be exploring a couple national forests on the way back, but it's not the same. A calming sense of acomplishment with a dab of sadness rolled through the veins.
The air is calm as the skies are blue. The surrounding area is bliss. There couldnt have been a better last park to lay eyes upon.
The usual hike, visitor center video, and exploration of the lands will occur tomorrow. Arriving a little later at the park didn't allow for any of that today. To respect the NPS and conclude the adventure I stayed within the park and bought a campsite for the evening.
Sitting here listening to the neighbors campfire crackle and pop I revisit the last time I was in Maine. As my trip failed last time around its only appropriate to feel a sense of relief that I made it this time. Maybe third time is the charm for Anthony and I (South America tour coming up?).
The small bridges stretching across the ponds. The forested hills surrounded by the ocean. These views along with the hundreds of others over the past couple of months speak for themselves. Happy centennial, everyone.
P.S. my companion is back. I longed for the feeling. Who? Well, no one. What? Well, the check engine light of course. Hello darkness my old friend...
