St. Georges to Waterville, ME

Back in the USA after uphill ride from Saint Georges.  Rain started shortly after crossing border.  Stayed at Parlin Lake resort, about 12 miles south of Jackman, ME.  A lodge with cabins and a restaurant.  No other businesses within 12 miles.
7/27:  80 mile ride through Skowhegan to Waterville.   Nostaligic city for me.  Spent 2 wonderful summers at Camp Belgrade, about 15 miles from Waterville on Great Pond.
Every summer the whole camp went to the Skowhegan fair.
Before the fair we always got the lecture not to eat burgers unless they were from the 4H  (tricinosis danger).
Birthdays were celebrated at Rummel's Ice Cream.  The building is still there but is now Gifford's.

Great dinner at the Last Unicorn.

    Great to see your progress, like that you made it by the site of youthful adventures (summer camp memories are great)
