This trip was a few years ago but it seems like yesterday. We took it with friends we have known since college. We had started in the twin cities and went to meet them in Rochester Mn to start the drive out east together. Mn to Pennsylvania then split. they would go to Cape Cod, we would do Liberty and Ellis Island and NY and meet them in Cape Cod before traveling to Maine then Niagra falls, Michigan and back to Minnesota: 2 weeks.Our Dog had other plans . We had dropped Sadie and Dixie, (our
Shitzupoos that think they are rotwiellers) at my sister in laws for the time weld be gone. Sadie decided she must have wanted other accomidations so when janine opened the door with groceries ...boom out the door she bolted. Fortunately we werent far on the trip (2 hrs) so we returned home to help with the search. It took 2 days to find the little dog. After posters, and lots of looking, coming to grips with the possiblity of not finder her, my wife and SIL drove by a couple of boys shooting hoops in the yard , stopped and asked if they had seen the little dog and SAID..., sure she is inside. The lad who said it, didnt live there. Im sure they were going to keep her. they had just lost their dog 6 months prior... same breed. Prayer works!

Anyway, with Dog found, car still packed, and friends 2 days jump on us, we dropped sadie off with ball and chain,(just kidding) ((baby gate with maximum security)) and took off driving straight thru to NY from MINN, witht eh exception of 3 hrs in an OHIO truck stop, (your wayside reststops in Ohio...ROCKS) they are soooo nice. We got to NY, saw ellis island,(last shuttle) took ferry back to landing only wrong landing. It took us to Manhattan Island,(wrong side of bay) we had to run down 1/2 mile to water taxi, which we caught (last one of the day) back to New jersey side. Got back to car, drove straight thru to Cape Cod, MA to meet friends. Memories,,, like the corners of your mind.....Karoke everyone....
These were a couple shots, I believe it was called Portland Lighthouse in Maine, beside it was looking out from said lighthouse. mountain top was Cadillac Mtn, we got up at 430 to go see the sunrise from there. We were told that the sunrise from Cadillac mtn is the first place in US to see the sunrise. Nice to be ahead of the group for once. The glow was in Acadia Park in Maine.
