Sept 7 - Hampton Beach Festival

Sept 7th, Saturday:  Hampton Beach Festival was a crowd!  Took the shuttle to the festivities and paid $8.00 to get in and then paid for lobster rolls and lobster bisque!  The food was great but did we really have to pay again?  Got a quick drink and saw that the shuttle was backed up in traffic with a long weight line.  So we walked which was a two cocktail walk!....in 92 degree weather!  P.S.  we had to sneak into the State Park to park with the Blue cuz the sign said no dogs, no pets, no Horses.  Guess that covered that.  Blue said he would hide and be quiet which he did!

Two more state down:  New Hampshire and Maine.

We are staying at a pretty KOA in Bar Harbor but again no internet.  Gretchen is in the game room updating the blog.
Wrist bands needed for the Seafood Festival.  And they cost $8.00/each!

The Lobster Lady serving us lobster rolls.

Yum, Yum, on the lobster rolls and the lobster bisque.  Notice the pretty Hampton Beach.

Holy cow is that a lot of people or what?

So which way was that to the Bar?

Cocktail stop #1 on way back to the motorhome. And more lobster food.

sh.  Blue must be very quiet here or else he will walk the plank!

Only a state park could come up with these no-no's.


Blurry sign says:  N.H. liquor store, Lottey tickets.  And this was on the highway!


Blue and two new friends.  He wasn't quiet certain what to do about that St Bernard who didn't have his keg!  Can you tell that Blue is yelling at him?!

Four more state left.

Wiscasset Maine.  Native American name that means "coming out of the harbor but you don't see where"  This is supposed to be the prettiest village in Maine but we differ.

Fort William Henry a 17th century fort that the French and Indians did not like so they destroyed it!
That's Roger on the left.

Pemaguid lighthouse:  most beautiful and most photographed.

View from the lighthouse.

Fish House Grill in Bar Harbor:  Back is Roger's lobster, clams, and mussels.
Front is Gretchen's lobster (called Lazy Man's cuz is was shelled).  Tasty potatoes and corn.
Gretchen finished WAY before Roger since she didn't have to crack the lobster!

Star lit sky at the campground.  Can you see the big dipper?  Well, for real the sky was aglow with a million stars and was just a sight to see.

Sleep tight.
