As the weather forecast was questionable we opted to make the two hour run to New Harbor and Shaw's Seafood for lunch. Using 295 for the first time we found the run to be very nice good road very little construction a plus on any side trip. It felt good to be back in the Mid Coast region again. There is just a true down east feeling getting north of Portland. The view from the pier @ New Harbor had a misty quality in the mid day. We arrived just as the boat docked from the island some of the passengers looked a little green disembarking from boat. One couple said the visibility off shore was about 1000 feet I thought that was pretty good for the Maine coast. The food was up to its usual standard with the shore dinner of lobster & steamers @ under $20.00. It fill out hunger and did not empty the wallet. The return trip to Kennebunkport found the rte. 1 traffic throught Wissacasset busy and the line @ Big Reds for ice cream was out onto the bridge. A short stop at Big All's and them off to Wal-mart @ exit 32 off the pike gave us a full day of exploring in Maine.
