I have returned. OH, what a wonderful vacation. Three days of Maine, three days of the White Mountains (New Hampshire), and 2 days of the Green Mountains (Vermont). Some vacational highlights:
Whale-watching off the coast of Maine
Finding Cadillac Mountain Stout (jake thought it was so so, I liked it lots)
Hiking Mt. Monroe in the White Mountains (2600 vertical climb in 3 miles!!)
Biking cross country trails at Mount Snow
Watching some SIC downhill action at the NORBA nationals (Mount Snow). [we saw 2 pros carried off the rain-soaked course on stretchers...they were conscious and moving all limbs, but it was frightening to watch. I caught some digital camera videos of a few not-as-dangerous crashes...we saw serious carnage this weekend]
Canadians (my friends that met us in Maine)
and of course...
Mountain Pies, Smores, Pancakes (yes, I make pancakes when I camp - the Bisquick shakable type though :o)
What a trip. That's all for now. As I watch Katrina close in on New Orleans, I'm reluctant to spend more than a paragraph on my relaxation. More tails and photos in the future I imagine.
