We said good bye to Battleboro and Ron Milon on Monday morning. Unfortunately, Ron had to go home (Detroit) early so that he can go back to work. Erskine, Phil and I continued our journey through Vermont into New Hampshire. We stopped and had lunch in Concord, NH. Did you know that the State House of New Hampshire is the oldest in the country in which the State Legislature has continuously used since 1819? After lunch we crossed into Maine and ended up in Freeport, ME. Freeport is a very quaint New England town. All of the buildings appear to be from the middle 1800's. Even the newer buildings appear to be from circa 1880s. However, the town is an outlet shopper's mecca. See the picture of Phil and me at the L.L. Bean outlet store. L.L. Bean has a campus of stores there in Freeport. Unfortunately, we only stayed in Freeport for about an hour. We had to drive another one and half hours north to our destination for the night of Bangor, ME. That entire area is so beautiful and desolate. I have never seen so many MOOSE CROSSING signs on highway. Thank God we did not see any Moose or car versus Moose accidents. We stayed at Super 8 Hotel in Bangor that evening.
