Aug 26th

Today we left at 8:00am, a little earlier than we like but we had a long day ahead of us.  We estimated that we would get to Friendship, Maine and my sister Diane’s house at 6:30pm.  It can be done by car in 5 1/2 hours but driving the GMC and towing a car makes it take just a little longer – about double?  We took secondary highways across Mass., New Hampshire and Maine (no tolls and lots of scenery).  It actually took us an hour less and we were comfortably parked at Diane and Davin’s house at 5:30pm.

A little later we were preparing a feast of fresh local corn and lobsters that were just caught today.  No mechanical difficulties except the fuel pump seems to have had another bad connection after being parked for 4 days and there was one instance of a clicking solenoid that went away quickly.
