Day 192

Day 192
Wednesday 9/9/9

Weather: Sunny, no rain.

Today's Hike -Carrying Place Stream to US 201/Caratunk, ME - 7.1 miles

We were hiking by 7:25am this morning and made it to the Kennebec River by 10:20am, 40 minutes before the last morning shuttle. Our ferry guide was David who had been doing the job for years. As we loaded the canoe he said that Grom and I would have to fight it out over who paddles and who rode. I looked at Grom and quickly informed her she was paddling then hopped in the canoe smiling. Not to bad of a fight, definitely will not lead to self destruction.

Once we were over the river it was a five minute walk to the road. By 11:30 we were at the Northern Outdoor Center getting a room for the night and gearing up for a hot lunch complete with their own Mico-brewed beer.

Later that night Billy Hoot, Nutmeg, Ink, and Holms showed up, and we hung out with them for the evening. By 9pm it was hiker midnight and I crashed. Guess I'll never be a night owl.
