So on Friday October 2, 2009 I left Meadville, Pennsylvania to journey to New Gloucester, Maine. I lived there for 25 months. It is one of the most beautiful places that I have ever lived. It was just me, my Dodge Neon and my Nikon. It was one of the best trips I have taken in a long while! I kept a small journal of my activities along the way. Here it is...Woke up in a hotel in Westbrook, Maine. Oatmeal and coffee for breakfast. A lovely shower. Heading out to New Gloucester at noon. Pack my car with my stuff from storage unit #133. Visit the New Gloucester Village Store. Eat tomato dill soup with homemade bread/bottle water. Apple picking at Thompson's Apple Orchard. Drive to Higgins Beach in Scarborough, Maine. Close my eyes and breathe! I am in love with this beach! Shoot some photos. Put my hands in the ocean water. Close my eyes again and breathe! Off to Portland, Maine. Go to the movies. Eat an apple. Movie is over. Step into Bill's Pizza shop where I pay $4.25 for a crappy piece of pizza. Sit at a bar(The Port Hole) and drink a Geary's Autumn Ale alone. The bartender flirts with me. Waiting for friends to pick me up on the street. I would like to hear Prince sing 'When doves cry.' Drink three Shipyard beers. Spend the night at a friend's house. Sleep next to a dog named, Willy. Wake up in South Portland, Maine. Coffee and a blueberry scone at Scratch Baking Co. Walk down to Willard Beach. Say good-bye to Maine. On the road by 8:30 a.m. When you love something you really love it!
