I am absolutely beat tonight, so this is going to be rather quick. We had a wonderful day today. We rode by Fort Knox so I was able to tour that and there is this city called Searsport, ME that used to be a big ship building city in the early eighteen hundreds and they had a maritime museum that was interesting. I was having a great day, but when I came out from the museum, I found that a bolt "that holds my back rack had broken and would no longer carry my load. There was a bike shop in town, but it was closed for the day so I went to an automotive repair shop and asked if they could get the broken end of the bolt out of an eyelet. They were too busy but they did let me use their tools to get things fixed. Anyway I was the last person to get back to camp but I think the bike is fixed.
I wish I could write more about the day and send a picture but no internet connection in the state park we are in. We rode 50 miles today and there were a lot of hills. These hills and carrying a out 60 lbs of gear is harder than i thought it would be. We are now in Camden, Maine.
