Wally's might very well be the best

I don't know if Wally's (Rte. 236, S. Berwick, ME, 603-534-2030) is really the best since I've only been there twice and have no basis for comparison but it is pretty darn good. We went there last year on the way home and again this year. It is, quite literally, an open shack by the side of the road. I went a little overboard last year so really tried to keep spending in check this year. The girl who works the place (is she the same girl as last year?) is very sweet and helpful. We make our purchases and get back in the car just as 4 other cars pull in.

The Wilds of Maine

We left early on Saturday morning; for once I am not late and arrive at my friend's house promptly at 9 AM. We stop for shopping in Portsmouth, NH, have a wonderful chicken caesar wrap for lunch at Portsmouth Gas Light Company. Then it's on to Maine.

Words will not do justice to the absolute peace and serenity here. It's Bauneg Beg Lake in Maine. There are times up when you literally cannot hear a human sound.
