Beech Mountain trail

Mike and I hiked the Acadia Mountain Trail on Friday. From the top, I hear you can get a great view of Somes Sound. When we set out from the motorhome, it was sunny. By the time we made it to the top, a fog had rolled in, which obstructed almost all of our view. Oh well...it was fun anyway.

Last weekend, when we were out at night in downtown Bar Harbor, it seemed like ice cream shops were on every corner. Tonight, we went looking for a really good cone. By the time we got down there, everything was closed! Then we found one shop that was open and it had unique, homemade flavors. It was awesome! They advertised lobster ice cream but I wasn't adventurous enough to try it. I think it was vanilla with cooked, buttered lobster chunks. Maybe tomorrow...

Saturday it rained again. We went to a matinee of Superbad at the Criterion Theatre.

Sunday, it was back to hiking. Yeah! I love hiking in Acadia National Park. It's beautiful. The weather has been nice and cool. Plus, you don't have to worry about being attacked by bears or mountain lions and there are no poisonous snakes! We hiked up to the only fire tower on Mt. Desert island via the Beech Mountain trail.
