Thursday, September 13, 2018 - Moving to Lubec, ME
It's moving day, but since we are not in a big hurry we are going to downtown Winter Harbor for breakfast at Chase's. We were told there food was quite good, so we are looking forward to trying it out.
 |
| My choice was a pancake with Maine blueberries and Maine pure maple syrup! It was delicious! |
 |
Dean chose the corned beef hash, with home fries, eggs and wheat toast. He really liked his meal as well.
|
After breakfast, we headed to the 5 & 10. Our neighbor from Massachusetts had a nice Winter Harbor t-shirt on. When I asked him where he got it, he said at the 5 & 10 downtown. That's what we were looking for. We both found a t-shirt we liked and left a few dollars in this nice little community that I'm sure we'll return to someday.
It didn't take us too long to finish up our work before we hitched up Bentley and pulled out around 10:00 or so. I didn't take a lot of pictures until we hit this patch of road. My first thought was, I hope this doesn't bounce my coffeepot off of the counter. I always use the rubber mat under it and it's never failed me, but I do wonder about it when we are bouncing along the road like we did today.

| Colorful buildings in Machiasport as we drove by. |
 |
| A short way down the road another beautiful old church. |
 |
| New electric poles going in along this stretch of road. |
 |
| And just a short distance later they are working on the road so we were detoured around and into Lubec. |
We pulled into Sunset Point RV Park before 12:30. After checking in and finding our site number we pulled in and were soon set up. After a quick lunch, we hopped in the truck and took a tour of the town.
A few pictures I took as we drove the roads around Lubec:
 |
| Lots of houses made out of this material that I always think of being coastal. |
 |
| I love seeing the colorful bouys on the garages and buildings. |
 |
| Beautiful Victorian homes facing the water. |
 |
| Quaddy Lighthouse |
 |
Yes, I am also found of old churches, especially with steeples. They are just so beautiful.
|
 |
| A beautiful home looking out over the water. |
Lubec, ME is the gateway to Campobello Island and the Roosevelt Campobello International Park. There is no other access by land to the Island except for the International Bridge from Lubec, Maine, however ferries do operate to and from the island, both to/from the US and Canada.
Campobello Island is only a bridge away - which is why Mulholland Lighthouse looks so close in this picture.

By he way, my coffeepot was fine and stayed right where it's supposed to during our trip here.
And what a beautiful way to end a wonderful day here in Lubec, Maine!
