Traveling in Maine

My wife, Karen, and I traveled just about as far away from home to the other side of the contiguous United States on vacation to the state of Maine.

We had plenty of good seafood and lobster. Cooked in little roadside “lobster pounds”. Fantastic tasting food, cooked fresh. Lobster Rolls, Lobster stew, Clam Chowder, Lobster Burritos and Lobster Quesadillas, Lobster Bisque and obviously fresh lobster - baked, boiled, and steamed.

We saw black and white ‘Oreo’ cows which are Belted Galloways, a rare breed of Scottish beef cattle. Kind of looks like an Oreo cookie - right?

This is one of the roadside shacks in one of the many port towns we toured. The colorful buoys hanging above the counter are for marking lobster traps.

And of course - we saw many white church steeples poking through the tree tops. This one is in Lexington, MA on the “commons” where the first shots were fired in the Revolutionary War.

And a lot of lighthouses - This one is Portland Head in Portland Maine
