On the Road Again...

Tomorrow is day one of a trip that we are both looking forward to. We are headed east through Maine, then north to Prince Edward Island and Nova Scotia. I'm really not ready to leave already again but timing is everything when you want to see the best of the fall foliage. I admit, it sounds like an old people's trip....fall foliage. But we love Maine in the fall, and I can't help but think that a little further north will be even better. Prince Edward Island (PEI) is supposed to be lovely. Nova Scotia boasts fishing villages and a beautiful coastline. We would like to go to Newfoundland as well, but we haven't figured out how to get there yet. It remains a possibility but not a certainty. A ferry would definitely be involved so we need to check it out when we get there. The description of it mentions seeing passing icebergs and that sounded really cool to me. We have picked out a few things we want to see. One of those is a cemetery where many Titanic victims are buried and the other, also a cemetery, has graves of POWs from the US from the War of 1812. Not sure why I have a thing for cemeteries.
I'm hoping to have internet somewhere up there so that I can post a few times, hopefully including some pictures to share.
Motor home packed, bills paid, mail held, dogs ready, kids kissed goodbye....I think we are ready.

Fall foliage doesn't sound old. But the cemetary thing? Uh, yeah. That's what old folks do. My mother in law comes to mind.
