Jim made pancakes for breakfast this morning. He put some blueberries in the batter and then we had Vermont maple syrup on top of them and bacon. He can cook good pancakes. Before leaving we drove down the road a few miles to the Sunday River covered bridge, built in 1872. There are only eight covered bridges in Maine.
After hooking up we drove to Rangeley, Maine. On the way we drove through Grafton Notch State Park and stopped at a couple of falls. We also stopped at a really pretty lake near Errol, New Hampshire with some sailboats on the water. After coming back into Maine we stopped at another one of their covered bridges. This one was Bennett-Bean covered bridge and was built in 1898. There was a really great campground at it and Jim wanted to stay but the office was closed and we didn’t know how much the site would cost. Just before the second covered bridge we stopped on the side of the road to take a picture at a beautiful stand of trees that were turning colors.
We continued on to Rangeley State Park and got a site there. At night I cooked the small pumpkin I had bought from a farmers market about a week ago and had some ham. The pumpkin was good. I think I will get another one and next time cook it the way mother used to.
