Traveling ain't what it used to be with 2 young kids in the picture. There was a time I wouldn't think twice about driving 24 hours straight if I had a driving buddy (did it in 2004-Yosemite National Park to Russellville, Arksansas, nonstop). But I am old and weak now.

I wonder if there is a maximum allowable weight for carry-on? If I can squeeze 50 lbs of grits in my backpack it ought to last him most of the year.

The Package is still safe and sound. I will be using it next winter.  :D
But be warned any licence plate, that is not from Maine, might get stopped at the end of the driveway with a shotgun.
JohnM is just about right about the "give" part.

JohnM, grits go great with seafood!  Can't have a fish fry around these parts without a pot of cheese grits.  Never had grits with lobster, but shrimp 'n grits - mmmm, make you slap yer granny!  digin1

We are flying into Portland and driving up the coast to Acadia National Park. Is that close to Chesterville?

The coastal route is beautiful.  Give yourself enough time as It will take all day to get there from Portland.

thecfarm

The airport is 2 hours away,Acadia National Park,Bar Harbor,is 4 hours away. I worked at Acadia for 2 summers. Magicman is better on Route numbers than I am. I know how to get there,I just go.  ;D
Bring something warm. Acadia is cold at night and early morning. Would be 90 at high noon,50 at night and this was in July.

Just stop at the place on Caps Browning Road where you see a big whack of logs, a huge sawshed, and a bear on the driveway.  That will be the place.

If he had an accurate pin on the map I could find him.  I should be driving fairly close to him.  ;D

I have false addresses that can be used to find both of my locations.  I use them for directions to the Chickin Crispins.
