When you're really hungry in Maine, go for the JUMBO lobster |
Since I was scheduled to be in New Hampshire for my buddy's The Skipper, annual wienie roast and fly-in, it seemed a good idea to spend a few extra days scrutinizing the coast of Maine. I hadn't been Down East for at least ten years and it was time to get reacquainted with the beauty of the lobster...er "lobstah" capital of the world. There is no place like it. It was also a perfect excuse to drop in on old pal Randy Jeffery and his wife Kim who, if you read my last post, are spending the summer on their boat in Boothbay Harbor.
The weather was warm and refreshingly smoke free, a welcome relief when compared to the vaporous smolder of the pacific northwest. Periwinkle blue skies were the order of the day and Randy was ready to take us for a boat ride for a look at Maine from the water. It was spectacular.
"Dutch", the boat Randy and Kim call home for a few weeks every summer, is an ideal vessel for sightseeing as it's big enough for comfort yet agile enough to navigate Maine's many small islands and harbors.
An unforgettable day!

It's always good to have a spare boat on the stern. |
