Down East Acadia

We decided to take a drive up the east coast to famous "Down East Acadia" to Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park. 

Drove across the Waldo Hancock Bridge, which was unusual. It was the first long-span suspension bridge erected in Maine, as well as the first permanent bridge across the Penobscot River below Bangor. It connects Waldo and Hancock counties. 



This lobster fisherman is ending his season. (He told us.)


We still saw many lobster boats still out.


In the Acadia National Park, we hiked in lovely, lovely snow.  The woods were lovely. We were on a  "carriage" road so the walk was easy and enjoyable.





Crystal clear water-water source for the surrounding communities




So clear!



Gorgeous walk. Beautiful, perfect weather








Amazing how trees can find a tiny crack in rocks, begin to grow until they are large.


Icicles!



Great way to end our lovely week visit to Maine
