Aloha and welcome to this edition of the Rogers Travel Journal, The Fall 2013 NorthEast Tour.  In August, our RV travels start up again in Maine, roll through Nova Scotia in early fall, head back to NH and VT and then Nashville (huh? see below) before returning home in mid October.

As usual, we’ll avoid the big cities, stay in State and National Parks when ever we can, bike and hike the trails, visit small towns and the folks that live in them, basically just chillin’ and living as we zig zag across America. 

Here’s our schedule:

1. We’ll spend our first week getting acclimated and tour a couple parks in Maine with stops in Portland, Camden and then three days in Acadia National Park.
   

2. We then take a long drive across eastern Maine. spend a day in New Brunswick before heading to the amazing tides on the Bay of Fundy in Nova Scotia.
   

3. I think the highlight of the trip will be the week we spend touring Cape Breton in northern  Nova Scotia.  They tell us it’s one of the top 10 drives in the world.
   

4. After stays in Halifax and Digby, NS we’ll catch the ferry back to St. John, New Brunswick and then head to back to the US and camp on the outskirts of Bangor, Maine.
   

5. Then it’s 4 days in the White Mountains of New Hampshire hoping to tour the Kancamangus Hwy, the Flume Gorge, and maybe ride the steep Cog Train to the top of the mountain.
   

6. We’ll finish up this season camping along the the Vermont/New Hampshire border taking  in the turning of the leaves in early fall before we end up in Saugerties and Albany NY.
   

7. ADD ON:  Scratch Saugerties.  After a quick jaunt to Niagara, we’re heading to Nashville.  It’s a long story about our daughter moving there, another grandbaby on the way, driving south from Albany in Oct vs in March (due date) when the cold winter will be upon us.  I told you it was a long story.
