Yesterday, there was only a 20% chance of rain, but it rained in the morning, so we waited until after lunch to head out to hike.
I have an app on my phone, called All Trails, and it's great when you travel, because you can locate yourself on the app, and then it tells you which trails are close by, and you can even read the reviews that hikers leave describing the trail. I used that app to locate a nearby trail called the Maiden Cliff Trail, which led to the summit of Megunticook, and it claimed you would have wonderful views of Megunticook Lake,and then views of Camden and Penobscot Bay from the very top.
The trail was about 6 miles round trip, and wow, what memories it brought back of the Appalachian Trail. The forest reminded us so much of the 100 Mile Wilderness, especially the roots along the trail. It was SO beautiful, and the views did not disappoint -- well, except the very final one - the clouds were quite low, and so we only had about a 60-second view of the Bay, and never saw Camden.
After supper, we headed back down to Belfast, and just sat at a waterfront restaurant and had a couple of drinks and enjoyed the sunset, watching the boats. Every now and then, a man would wander over to the Mustang and take a picture of it. No matter where we go, we have to allow extra time for visiting with men in parking lots. They want to hear ALL of the details of what Keith did to restore it. I'm not kidding - that car is a magnet!
