mission complete

This morning was another foggy day, a wet and misty fog with skies that don’t look too friendly.  Got all the rain gear on, packed the bike and headed for the border. About an hour and a half I get to the border, hand over my passport and rental papers, answer a couple of questions and she says “you can go.” Almost like a dare which was strange because less than a half mile away the Maine State Police came flying up behind me.  I have no idea why but he followed me for about 30 miles which stunk cuz my teeth were floating; from the border you can go about 60-70 miles and there is nothing! Once I got to Bangor ME it was rt 95 time, I hate highways. I remember when this road used to be free but now it cost me a total of $5.00. At least I was going in the right direction; the northbound lane was bumper to bumper all through Maine and New Hampshire! It wasn’t long before I was turning the bike over and the trip was done, seems like just yesterday I was getting the bike. It was agreat ride with great scenery and met some interesting people. Only got cut off once, believe it or not it was old people with FLORIDA plates!
