Day 22? The "halfway" point.

Made it to Maine. Furthest point from our start. We're tired but happy. We spent part of the day laying on a patch of grass across from a church. The views here are stunning. Lots of buoys and gulls (as written on bathroom signs here).
It's pretty peaceful. Wonder if the real estate is affordable? I could live here.
Time to turn around and head back home I suppose. Tomorrow's a long drive to Niagara. I'll make Pat or Colin take the wheel.

Leaving nj

We've all been bad about keeping everyone up to date on our adventures. The problem is that we've all been subject to the relentless hospitality of Jeff's extended family in New Jersey. They've kept us housed, fed, entertained, and fed some more.

Our first stop in the garden state was long beach island. The location of the legendary 12th street house. There we met Mary Lou and Jim. With hardly a hello we were given free range of the house. It was late and growing dark so the most logical thing we could think of doing was jumpin into the Atlantic.

We dozed off in short order. I of course stayed up a bit later than everyone dealing with video stuff and the internet. I'll find a way to show it off when I get back to California I quickly discovered that we are moving too fast to edit and post videos.

In the morning after breakfast we went back to the Atlantic and dove in. A few minutes later the sky opened up and began to refill the Atlantic. Lifeguards came up and told us to get out of the water on account of the looming thunderstorm. I suppose there are some instances where listening to authority figures is good practice.

We saw the wharf. Saw the lighthouse and relaxed some more on the beach. This place has a lot of history in it. Particularly to Jeff's family. Im going to leave that story for him tell.

We are now on our way to Boston for the 4th of July. We spent the 2nd in New York City so i need to write in an entry explaining what we got up to there. Hopefully this post will remind you that we are in fact alive and doing well. Stay tuned.
