It’s cold in Maine. But it’s sunny!
This blog comes to you by way of a KOA in the woods just outside Portland, Maine. Simon, our intrepid new road manager secured a warm shower, electricity for our RV (which is needing some extra now that the sun isn’t as strong against the solar panels) and a friendly Saturday pancake breakfast! We decided to take the hospitality and double up our mileage today, as the sun now also sets right about 6pm and that makes for pretty dark running after that time.
So, we are running south along US route 1 still and knowing that every step gets us further south and closer to warmer climes (which Steph loves). The fall leaves and 17th, 18 century houses and building continue to stop us in our tracks for another photo op. Yesterday I started my 1st of the day under brilliant blue skies after a jaw dropping East Coast sunrise, and the mercury dipping below 30 degrees Fahrenheit. Hey, it even snowed just up the road from where we’d crossed over a few days previous. Six inches and winter’s a comin’ folks!
We are inspired by the beauty and hospitality of this part of America and continue to work hard booking school events and media interviews to get the message out, six miles at a time.
Please take the time to do one new thing differently for the health of our amazing Planet. She provides so much for us it’s crazy. If we all did one thing differently all those small steps start to really add up. I know, sorry for the motto plug but that is the truth of it.
Be your own local hero, you will inspire so many around you.
From the KOA in Maine, we say have a great weekend! Now, gotta wake the troops (Simon and Steph) for some down home breakfast…….
