On the spur of the moment, my lovely wife and I decided to drop in on my daughter and her family who were camping on the coast of the coast of Maine. We snagged another granddaughter along the way and took her with us. The kids had a great time together.
Here's the veggie van.
It doesn't take much planning for a camping trip when the van is always ready to bug out for action.
This is looking down the bay from Chewonki Campground in Wiscasset Maine.
My daughter and son-in-law took my new inflatable kayak for a salt water test. They approve. It gets high marks for stability.
With no reservations, we happened to get the site right next to my daughter. It was one of the few still open. Sometimes luck is on my side. Of course, any day camping on the ocean is a good day.

Do you make any effort to level the van when you camp?
ReplyDeleteLooks worse than it is in the photo. I like to sleep with my head elevated, so I park to make that happen.
DeleteYeah, I learned a long time ago how camera angle can distort things.
DeleteCongradulation on getting to go with the kids and grands.See what i meant about a lot of people camping now.Also noticed no powerboat wake in your pics.
ReplyDeleteThanks. Rarely see powerboats in this bay. Kayaks, canoes, and sailboats mostly.
DeleteMy son and his family just got back from visiting friends in Cushing. They had a wonderful time and were amazed at the beauty in Maine. Didn't see any moose, though.
ReplyDeleteI've had moose in yard here in NH. A lot of my friends live in Maine. Of course, where I live in Northern NH, Maine and Vt are both 35 minute drives.
DeleteMaine is beautiful this time of year. Spent six months on Hurricane Island some years back. It's off the coast from Rockland.
ReplyDeleteHope they were the warmer six months. Beautiful but bleak in the winter.
DeleteCamping is so much fun and it relaxes the body.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy!!!
Works for me!
DeleteGreat to be out camping but even better to be camped next to your daughter.
ReplyDeleteIndeed it was. My kids have been going camping since they were little and they love it.
DeleteSome pics of the veggie van interior would be cool. I'm curious(nosey) how you have it set up.
ReplyDeleteThere are some interior shots buried in the archieves.
