The first highway

Odometer:14135
Gas: 2.48







































We took the longer way south from Bar Harbor to Scarborough along route 1. Went through some great fishing towns and saw some amazing hidden harbors.




We were happy they built a new bridge in Bucksport - the old one looks a little suspect.





Along the edge of the bay in Bucksport, there was a huge fort - called Fort Knox (not the one with gold) - but we haven't looked up the history on that one yet, but impressive to see from the highway.






A couple of things we have noticed over the last month of driving around - don't fret a bad back - every town has a chiropractor no matter what the population, you can always fill up on a KFC box - they seem to be around every corner, the Jehovah's Witnesses have church everywhere in the small towns and the yards are immaculate.
