Capitol of Maine

July 12, 2007
The day started to clear and we walked about looking at the bridge across the Penobscot River, longest river in Maine. We walked the water front stopping to read the exhibits and learned that The Roosevelt, schooner that sailed to he north pole, was built here. After some shopping we drove across the new bridge and around to Fort Knox for different perspective on the bridge. The old bridge is to be torn down someday when the state gets money for that.

Belfast is a neat little town. We stopped and played BuzzTime at Rollies, sat at the harbor and watched the ships and walked about town a bit before heading inland on route 3.

Augusta, capital of Maine. We walked around the capitol building exploring all the nooks and cranies. Outside is the Liberty Bell of Maine; Will rang the bell while Kathy talked on the cell phone to Maria.

Crossed the Annascoggin River from Lewiston to Auburn. We stopped at the Great Falls Park and made dinner. Driving into the sunset we continued west. We found a lot for sale with a dirt road going back into the trees and deove back to find a clearing where we spent the night. Kathy fell right to sleep and Will finished generation number five of Fate.
