Maryellen's brother Kevin, visited us for a day and overnight, and we had a fun time going to Bar Harbor and all of the small towns the area. Kevin worked in Bar Harbor for 7 years so he was a great tour guide.We went to the top of Cadillac Mountain, which is beautiful.
While riding around, we saw two beaver building a dam...they let us get very close and seemed not to be bothered by us being there.
Fortunately (or unfortunately) there is a brewery about a mile away from where we're staying and we had to sample what they had. We also brought some back with us to sample further, but for some reason there are none left. We had fun.
Yesterday, we decided to go for a scenic plane ride around Bar Harbor and ended up going up in a glider and soaring around BH!
It was unbelievably cool! We were towed up one mile and then the tethering rope was disengaged and we were off gliding like a bird.
It was a clear day and we could see 100’s of islands. We enjoyed it so much that 3 hours later we went up in a biplane! The biplane was great but the glider was awesome!
This is the towplane just getting ready to release us....
The Bi-plane..we sat in the front...open cockpit.

Lastly, I made some changes to the blog and have a new section called "Latest Pictures" so you don't have to scroll through too many to see the newest additions.
We're here in Bar Harbor until Tuesday, but we're not sure where we're going next...yet.
Best,
Paul and Maryellen
