Great Maine Vacations

Who wishes they had started their new year off like this? I know I do!

First sunrise of the new year as seen from the top of Mt. Battie.

For the past four years, a group of residents has gathered to walk the auto road before the sun rises to catch the first light of the new year as it peeps over the horizon.

Are you looking for a way to avoid an early onset of the winter blues? http://www.great-maine-vacations.com/activities-and-events-in-maine-november.html

It may be November, but the scenery can still be very, very pretty.

If only the paint store could offer these colors.

I highly recommend this route. It's a spectacular sightseeing ride during the height of fall foliage.

The cars race east and west on Routes 25 and 302 in western Maine, their drivers hell-bent on getting to the coast or New Hampshire's Presidential Range. Not you. You're taking the Pequawket Trail Scenic Byway into the foothills of the White Mountains.

While taking this virtual vacation, please don't miss that fact that T+L includes Camden, Maine as one of "16 of the world's most beautiful (and charming) coastal towns".
