Home Again, Home Again...

So the classic family vacation has come to an end. Early start from Maine landed us home about 1pm after dropping off The Beast. I had forgotten how big and loud that thing was until we got into Gail's car. The Beast (Forest River SunSeeker 3100) took very good care of all of us. From the 110km/hour Canadian highways to the pothole stricken dirt roads it took everything we threw at it. And we took pretty good care of it, other than the time we almost drove off with the awning out and antenna still up. Not bad. Oh, actually - and that mirror thing...

After getting back 'down state' we realized how urban the area is. We really got a chance to see some beautiful parts of the world we may not get the chance to see again.



















So what started as a request by Michael to see Acadia National Park (He studied it in 5th grade) turned into one of the greatest family vacations ever. The kids were a great age for it, the places we went (for the most part) were very special and the weather even cooperated.

I will always cherish the past two weeks. For the adventure, for the great experience the kids had but most of all, for the special time Gail and I were able to spend together. She really is the best.

Thank you all for following our adventure and for your comments. The blog was really fun for all of us and i hope you enjoyed it too. (And that it wasn't the 2009 version of that slide show folks used to make their friend sit through.)

That said, there is nothing like your own bed. (your own bed.)
