He didn't look at the passports at all. Just asked a few questions of honest Ida, but then he made her open the trunk in case we were smuggling some Mexicans from Canada. She let out a sigh of relief afterward.
Canadian Route 173 became US Route 201. Very scenic but some rest stops with bathrooms would be nice.
Lots of these signs |
We found a beautiful rest stop near a creek with a restroom and a picnic area, so we had our lunch there. Good thinking picking something up since these poor people in Maine don't know what a Wawa is.

We arrived in Portland and checked into our hotel by 5:00 PM. We covered quite a few chapters of the book and we're almost finished now. For dinner we went to the dock area and ate aboard a ship, DiMillo's restaurant. We took a walk around the old port area after dinner.
