We went to Acadia National Park Visitors Center to get information about Hiking, and the must see attractions at the park. We drove the 27 mile loop around the park and what a beautiful place, its a stunning mix of forest and coastline. We went to the top of Cadillac Mountain which is the highest point on the North Atlantic Seaboard and between October and March you can view the Sunrise first in the United States. If you visit Acadia National Park in your RV be careful there are low bridges on the loop road.

We pulled in to Pleasant Hill RV Park and Campground on Saturday July 29. We’ve been taking care of setting the camp up and some of the chores that go along with traveling. This is home for a month or so, theres talk that the campground may need a couple to camp host until October but nothing firm yet.

Vermont is a beautiful state to drive around. We drove around trying to find covered bridges and as we’re driving the paved road would end and we would find ourselves on a tree lined smooth dirt road it was like driving through a forest.

We left Western New York on Sunday the 23rd via the back roads what a beautiful drive. The road goes through small towns and endless farmland and you see the occasional Amish horse buggy. We stayed the night at a Walmart in Glenville New York and continued on the next day to Dummerston Vermont where we’ll lay over for 4 days to plan the trip to Maine. We would like to Workamp in Maine and stay until October but we are not having much luck finding work so Maine is a question mark. We went out exploring Vermont today what a beautiful place. Our first stop was the Robb Family Farm established in 1907 as a dairy farm and converted to Maple Syrup and Hay in 2011. Wow once you have farm fresh Maple Syrup you can’t go back to store bought. Very nice people nice tour, look them up online if your in South Eastern Vermont. Next we went to the cover bridge in Dummerston Vermont, built in the early 1800’s.

The bucket above is old school and the spike and tube is how its done today.

This is our final day at Niagara Falls and we wanted to stay until night-time so we could see the falls illuminated and watch the fireworks. We also went on the Maid of the Mist Boat Tour to the base of the Horseshoe Falls and The Cave of the Winds tour at the base of the Bridal Falls. We would highly recommend doing these two things if you go to Niagara Falls USA.

Near the State Park Visitors Center they have the Great Lakes Garden.

We visited a local a farm where we picked some Raspberries and did some wine and beer tasting.

We visited the Erie Canal and took a cave tour with an underground boat ride.

The Culinary Institute of Niagara Falls has a self guided tour and within its building it has a fine dinning restaurant, a New York style deli, pastry shop, and wine tasting. We decided to eat lunch at the deli it was very good and affordable.

Hot Capicola melt with chips and pickle. Tasted better than picture looks.

Aquarium of Niagara Falls.

This was not much of an aquarium and our first clue was it smelled like a fish market as soon as you open the door. The variety is poor, I’ve been fish stores that were more interesting.

This is the campground we’ve been staying at for the last week and we have 1 more week here. We have enjoyed our stay here and would recommend this campground to anyone who is in Western New York to see Niagara Falls. Its a nice 40 minute drive through New York’s farm land to Niagara Falls, Lewiston, and about 15 minutes to Lockport where the Erie Canal is. The campground has a little 8 acre lake for catch and release fishing and canoeing, guinea hens running around the campground, many different birds, and at night Fire Flies. Below are some photos of the campgrounds.
