Yesterday we left Maine and began heading Southwest toward Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. The plan is to stay 3 nights there to take in the history of the area.
We ended up staying in Wells, Maine for 12 nights. We took the commuter train into Boston on Monday. Then we took the subway out to the JFK Library. We were a little dissapointed in the library. It wasn't nearly as interesting as the LBJ or the Reagan libraries. After the Library we took the subway downtown and had lunch at Cheers. The TV show was filmed in Hollywood, but looked like the real bar.
We drove in to Boston earlier in our stay and took the Fenway Park tour. $28 to park the car was just like home. It is the 100th anniversary of the park. Reminded me of old Sick's Stadium with the columns blocking the views from some of the seats.
This past weekend we drove out to the very tip of Cape Cod. We learned that this is where the US Coast Guard got it's start. The weather cooperated most of the day. It's been cool and wet about half of the time here. But looking ahead, it's 70's and 80's once we get into Virginia and continue heading south, then west to Arizona.
The Fall colors have been less than anticipated. Maybe it's been a bad year.

Ernie, just looked at your new pics, seems funny to see you standing in the same places we were a few weeks ago. We loved it when we were in Boston. Glad you guys are enjoying your trip. w
We will be in Maryland (Bowie) in a month. Plan on touring the D. C. area and the city of Annapolis. I'm sure there will be other places we will see. My Aunt has a trip to Chesapeake Bay restaurant. She says it's great. When I was thirteen I fished for Crabs in Chesapeake Bay. Looking forward to trip. Have fun on the road.
