Home at 1AM on Saturday

Our route from a NW suburb of Washington to Maine as follows.

A Memorial Day Friday meant massive traffic into New Hampshire and Maine. Therefore we knew we would use the typical west to east Route 9 across the bottom of Vermont and NH. We did that quiet route on a damp late Friday evening.

Rain, rain!

Days in Nebraska with only rain. As we arrived in the Midwest rain moved in and in Maine extreme May heat arrived!

How to get warm in Maine?

There is only one way. Leave!

Cold continues forever so go to the Midwest to get warm.

May 6, 2017

Last May we were away most of the month while two contracts were active.  This tour we have none of that.  Goal is to collect additional states under the new rules.  If we eat one meal and stay one night we are allowed to collect the state.  Since August 2015 we have collected 16 of 50 states.

MAY - May warmer?

We all know as follows: do not plant tomatoes until late May. In Maine all who plant in mid May either have been burned or the cold soil resulted in stunted growth. So do as follows, just wait!
