We also toured North and South Windows and hiked a primitive trail around both.

9/9 Maine

On Saturday, after a lot of muddy cleanup in the morning, we headed to Maine to see the Atlantic Ocean and the Nubble Lighthouse.  We were hitched back up to the trailer again, so I was a little worried about parking at the lighthouse.  When we got nearby, the road had a gravel shoulder wide enough for the trailer, so we pulled over and unhitched.  Then we went to the lighthouse and climbed on the rocks by the ocean (and waded in a little).  The weather was much cooler, though still warm.  After the lighthouse, we decided to get lunch and buy gas while we were unhitched.  When we returned to the trailer a couple of hours later, a man walked out to me and told me that we were parked on his property and he had called the police!  There were no signs or anything indicating that this was private property, and it was right alongside the road.  But we hitched up in a hurry and got out of there!  I didn't do as thorough an inspection as I usually wo...
