I know a blog is supposed to be timely but at this stage of the trip, it is not so I am backtracking about three weeks. During our stay in Maine I was impressed with the number of easily accessible trails within a 15 mile radius of my sister's home in Orono-one a block away. In addition to State and Federal trails, Maine Land Trusts have given visitors and residents alike access to hundreds of miles of trails for biking and hiking. They are not rutted by four-wheelers and trash along the routes is almost non-existent. We arrived in Maine during the government shutdown; the national parks were closed so we viewed Arcadia Park from the top of Chick Hill in Clifton, Maine. In the parking lot was another car sporting Alaska plates.
