Back in August I had the opportunity to visit Maine (albeit very briefly) to help a friend move the remainder of his belongings to the not-so-blue grass of Kentucky. I couldn’t have been more excited; after years of longing to visit New England – even though I’ve never been there and I grew up in Louisiana – I finally had my chance to see the beloved state of Kenneth Roberts. Let me tell you, I was not disappointed.
Granted, I only saw a small part of the state (a very small part); in addition, it was the part of the state most frequented by tourists. Nevertheless, I fell in love with it and hope to go back often. I even passed through town mentioned in Hillary’s Travels with Hillary blog on places to visit in Maine (I see now why she has such a love for Maine!)!
Though, I did not get an opportunity to visit Roberts’ estate, I did pass through the county it’s located in!
Enough of the gushing … below are some snapshots I took in Camden and Liberty (and one other town I forgot the name of). They’re not much; it was my dad’s HP camera that was only 2 mega-pixels; further, I’m not a good photographer.
