Baddeck to Stephensville NB.Border Crossing

Arrived in Searsport and are camping at the SEARSPORT SHORES OCEANFRONT CAMP for 2 nights. Pat needs her fix of seafood before we head for Ontario. The brown trout were caught by Mark and Harry just before we left for Home.
Maine is so beautiful. We had to come back and enjoy the ocean before we head home.

Argentia and the Ferry


Hello There!
I would have liked to add a few photos but it would have been a maze of white / grey.(fog).ARGENTIA IS SOCKED IN. Starting to clear now. For supper tonight We made fried potatoes and onions with pan fried Cod Fillets and salad/ cold slaw. What a way to end our journey on the ROCK. Forecast for tomorrow is favourable with the ferry arriving at 7.30 am.We will be able to see it from our campsite.Going to have to run Chase tomorrow and tire him out for the 14 hour trip to North Sydney. He will be fine in the trailer. Done it before in Alaska.Need to assemble at 1.30 pm. for our 3.30 pm. launch time.
So We are leaving this beautiful, unpredictable,rugged piece of ROCK with fond memories and the urge to go around the next bend to see what we can discover.This photo epitomizes what this whole journey was about, rugged beauty,crazy weather and bones, moose bones. Thank God we didn't hit one of those Critters.
I know when I arrive home the first thing I will complain about is the heat and HUMIDITY. They do not have this problem here. this has been a BLAST!
