Great Suggestions Bill B/Bus.  I've added those to our bucket list.  Now tell me more about your Nova Scotia comment about rescinding camping laws?  Is there a lot of dry camping in Nova Scotia?

Also, I'm glad to hear there is still some fall color in northern Maine.  We were sad that we passed by Vermont 2 weeks too early.

Chris.

Campgrounds are closing quickly so call ahead. Bay of Fundy at Hopewell Rocks - must see. St John's, Moncton and Truro all have reversing falls. Where the incoming tide overwhelms the flowing stream/river in St John's. A visit to the Gaspe Peninsula is a great trip. Approach the Gaspe  from the south and go counterclockwise. This keeps the ocean on the right side of the coach. You will find several fairly short but steep grades, 12% plus. There is a 16% going north out of Perce but there is a bypass around the hill. Prince Edward Island is again worth the trip.

Nova Scotia rescinded the law against camping outside of campgrounds. It had cost them a lot of revenue.

Enjoy the fall color. Central Maine is just starting to turn. Kind of muddy color this year. We'll have to see what full color brings.
