Maine/New Hampshire Border

Jun 22 - 27.…Our park is about a ½ mile into Maine - right on the New Hampshire border. We are enjoying the ‘no sales tax’ in NH. We made our trip to Houston and it turned out to be another 2 days of eventful flying!!! We left out of Manchester, NH at 645am & made it to Newark just fine -- once there it was another story. The flights were overfull out of Newark so about 11am we decided to take a shuttle van to LaGuardia airport ($60 - 1 hr ride). We went there because even though the flights were full, the pass rider list was small. By the time we got there that was no longer true. We finally got on the last flight of the day (which was delayed) at 930p. We arrived in Houston at Midnight got our car rental and made it to the condo at 130am. With the time difference we were up for just short of 24hrs. The trip back was just about as bad. We left Houston at 755am with no problems -- again it happened in Newark. We arrived and found out there was a delayed flight to Manchester that we dashed over to try and get on…of course the door had just been closed. Then we found out that our flight at 335pm was canceled and the next one wasn’t until 840pm. Later in the day this became delayed, not leaving until after 1030pm. We arrived in Manchester at 1140pm and back to the motor home at 115am. Luckily there was a Presidents Club in LGA and EWR where we spent most of the days. However, aside from all the flight problems the wedding was beautiful and we sure enjoyed visiting with family! The wedding took place on Lake Conroe - outside on a deck overlooking the water. It ended up being a short trip but worth it!
On Monday we drove to Kennebunkport & the surrounding towns. We saw former President George & Barbara Bush’s summer home. It’s on Walker’s Point right on the ocean. You can park on the side of the road and get a great view of the house, tennis court, secret service homes & his boats (he goes fishing everyday - we just missed him as an office told us he was out a couple of hours before). It’s a beautiful site! We also stopped to see 2 lighthouses - Goat Island Light & Nubble Lighthouse. Also stopped at the Lighthouse Depot which is a large store that has every type of lighthouse item you could imagine. We made a recommended stop at Mike’s Clam Shack were we had a wonderful bowl of Clam Chowder and a Lobster Roll. We’ve heard so much about Lobster Rolls that we had to finally try one. It has chopped lobster with a little mayo put in a hot dog bun that is grilled (it’s like a grilled cheese with lobster instead). It was delicious! Fresh lobster beats the heck out of frozen!!! The next thing we have to try is “Soft Shell Lobster”. We hear it’s even better!
Tomorrow we leave and travel a little further up the coast. We haven’t decided where we will be for the next 2 nights but will be at Bar Harbor on Friday!
