Back to Ride Itinerary Bamacyclist Home Day 2
|
|
| ROUTE: Old Orchard Beach ME to Portsmouth NH | DISTANCE: 58 Miles | WINDS: Light early, then southerly in the afternoon. Pesky headwinds late. |
| WEATHER: Sunny and cool...37 low, 57 high | TERRAIN: Mostly flat, rolling at the end | TOTAL CLIMBING: 1200 feet or so |
| DID I SAY THAT?: "Flying out here, I met someone who was trying to get out of the city...she was thinking about moving to Montana. Now that's a bit drastic don't you think? She was an interior designer...she specialized in closets. That may be a career in the city, but I'm not sure it will catch on in Montana...unless the cowboys need to have an organizer for their boots, guns, and fishing poles." | DAILY DUH: I did a good one today...just being a helpful tour leader. Today we rode by George Bush's mansion in Kennebunkport and everyone was anxious to see the place. I got out front and positioned myself to stop the riders to see George's house. After I got everyone stopped, I went forward to position myself to get a good photo of them riding by. I got just around the corner and low and behold, I found the REAL George Bush's house. I sent Karen back to tell them I'd made a boo boo and when she got back, she said the riders had already taken a hundred photos of Elmer Snigolopalos' house. They had set up a tripod and everything. Sorry to disappoint everyone, but now they should have known all the proper camera settings to take photos of the real attraction. |

DAILY DIGITAL DELIGHTS |
||
Dan, Tifany, and Marian (the ones wearing the goofy bibs), became the 3 Lobsterteers...all for one, one for all. |
 Not sure if the lighthouse is doing it's job...or was I just a victim of a ridiculously quick low tide. |
|
 That's just like a man...he can't figure out whether he wants to fish or harvest the crop. |
 Color in New Hampshire is good too. |
|
 This made a great photo, but George's real house was around the next corner. |
 OK, find the one who lives in the north country? |
|
 I couldn't resist a photo of a camera taking a photo. |
 We had a varied day today...ocean, beach, lighthouses, and still had a few nice colorful trees to admire. |
|
 We were really impressed with how low the tide was today...in this inlet, the water was barely up to the bottom of the boats. |
This is a photo of George's house, but due to security regulations, I'm not allowed to post it. |
