Decided to head back to Crawford Notch to see if we could get some good photos

Stopped at pond by the Wiley House first.

Then we headed to the Notch. Luckily there were not that many tourists there today so we managed to get a good parking spot and were able to take some great photos

Then we stopped by the Flume

Then we headed to North Conway to check out Zeb’s country store. Bought an ornament and another gnome.

So far this is the only moose we have seen

Then we stopped at Thorne Pond and continued to the Saco River. It was a rocky path to get to river

Headed back to B and B but had to stop for more pumpkin people this one won second prize

This one is by a winery

Once we got back to the B and B we stopped at main part of Inn and one of the owners told us that Samuel Bemis owned over 10,000 acres that included most of Crawford Notch. Current owners own his house and over 115 acres. He bought one of the first cameras in 1840 and took the first known landscape photographs

Today’s memory. This one reminds me of when we went to Moosehead Lake in 2012. We went on a moose safari. We actually saw two moose and got some great pictures. We also went to Baxter State Park where the Appalachian Trail ends. We have been on parts of the AT in several different states and wanted to include Maine in our list – especially because its where the AT ends. We were lucky enough to see another moose on our way out. He was a lot thinner. We joked that he was he was our $14 dollar moose.

There is a section of road near Greenville that is called Moose Alley that is recognized for both for its stunning vistas of Mount Katahdin and the chance of seeing at lest one moose besides the road.

There really are moose in Vermont!   We have been coming to Vermont for years.  There are lots of signs for Moose Crossing but we had never seen a moose until today.  This one was walking right down the middle of Route 7 – about 5 miles from Dorset.  We slowed up and then stopped alongside the road and the moose walked right past us and we were lucky enough to get a good shot.
