September 15, 2011. Augusta, Maine. The Journey.

The plan was a good one.  Dinner at The Admiral Digby Inn was excellent and we enjoyed eating while  overlooking the Annapolis Basin.   We had hoped for good clear weather on the ferry,  but instead we got fog, all the way from Digby to St. John.  Part of the drive today included driving through heavy rain so we stopped after five hours,  in Augusta, Maine.  As we did last evening, we will dine early.  It appears there are good restaurants in Augusta, at least according to the lady checking us in to the motel.

Now we have 11 hours to drive before reaching the farm.   I know because the GPS told me so.    But we will not follow their route tomorrow so will hear many times of "recalculating" from our friendly lady from the GPS.  But we will get home to the farm and we do have good maps, so we may just turn that lady off.  We will continue our journey without her!!  How old fashioned of us.
