On the Road Again...part 4


East Blue Hill; Acadia National Park; Ellsworth, Maine

I got that lobster roll today!! But that’s later. I started my day with fresh, piping hot popovers! ‘Common Good’ is a soup kitchen in the winter, to raise funds they serve fresh popovers and homemade oatmeal during the summer. YUM! Check out the view across the way. And the ocean smell!!!

I had an up close and personal tour of a working farm in East Blue Hill, ME today. My son-in-law’s brother, Eran, works with a group called World Organization of Organic Farmers. He is here living in a yurt with his girlfriend, Stephanie, and they work the farm with the owners. It is a small farm, but set within 13 acres of heavily forested evergreen trees. The owners cleared the land and built all the buildings from the wood. It is an exquisite place. Eran was here last winter and learned to use all the wood tooling machines. He has worked with the wood from chopping the tree to making the planks to a finished household product. It’s pretty cool.

We took Sheba, dog, along on our tour of Acadia national Park. Arya ignored her. No hissing even! I’ll just post some pics because it was beautiful!!!






Please, PLEASE throw the stick!!
After a day of one breathtaking view after another, Eran and I parted ways in the Walmart parking lot. He went home to Stephanie and I went back down the road to get that lobsta roll. And it was REALLY good.

Look at those big chunks of lobster!! Hardly any mayo.
I just ate the meat, the bread and such was kind a lame.
