Wishing you and Jen safe travels, great weather and an awesome time! I'm on vacation too after this week at work. We really wanted to go to Maine again, but with so much going on in our lives, it's not to be. But come May, we're going!!! We both feel so at peace there. Haha, so true, 5 more sleeps now. thank you! Enjoy your vacation, like you said just not meant to be, everything happens for a reason. We too feel at peace up there as well, just something about it there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bionic Posted August 29, 2021 Author Share Posted August 29, 2021 (edited) Day 1: left home at 2:30am, and stopped in Saco for breakfast. After breakfast we zoomed up the last 3 hrs up to the house. Unloaded, and took the X3 to lunch on the water. I just had a burger, and fries. I was so hungry, and thirsty that I had a pounding headache. I try not to drink too much water while traveling on a trip of this length, so it gives me a headache, but as I ate, the headache cured. After late lunch/early dinner, we took my truck to get groceries, and after that we went back out in the X3 to attempt finding a cabin we might rent. Lastly, we took the X3 on a nice trail up to a B52 plane crash site. Edited August 29, 2021 by Bionic 17 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bionic Posted August 29, 2021 Author Share Posted August 29, 2021 Also, I brought a Spypoint Link Micro to stash someplace on a moose trail! I am really excited for that, if I get a moose pic, it would be extremely exciting for me. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SportsmanNH Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 And Here We Go ! FYI , I did call the Maine Dept Of Tourism and warn them about the impending shortage of shramp and lobstah about to happen in Northern Maine . They said they would get right on it and are sending emergency supplies to fill the void of excessive upcoming demand upon your arrival. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have a couple buddies that live there and enjoy visiting them when we can. Might be off on my dates, but aren't you two supposed to be married this year? Or did I somehow miss it during the covid shit show.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

corydd7 Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 https://theaviationgeekclub.com/an-in-depth-analysis-of-infamous-dover-c-5-crash-part-1-the-lead-up-to-the-accident-and-crash-animation-with-cockpit-recorder-playing/ Not to jack the thread but I worked crash recovery at Dover when this happened. Pretty wild to wake up to a phone call saying get your ass to work. My buddy was the FCC (flying crew chief), he ruptured his spline and had a back injury that got him discharged. The elderly couple taking a hop didn't even realize the plane crashed until the T-tail broke off and they could see out the back of the jet (c5 passenger seats face backwards),they thought it was just turbulence. We listened to the black box recording, pilot had no clue what was going on, engineer shit his pants 10 seconds before the crash, he was scared to correct the pilot almost cost him his life. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bionic Posted August 30, 2021 Author Share Posted August 30, 2021 Day 2: 80 some miles. This thing is a beast. This thing drifts, soaks up bumps, and is comfortable all at the same time. We saw one moose today, and barely got a pic. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks. The SXS has been a game changer up here for us. We can cover a lot more ground vs the ATV we have. Our backs aren’t sore, the power steering is effortless, its just nothing but positive. It’s just a tank, we love it. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bionic Posted September 1, 2021 Author Share Posted September 1, 2021 Just now, mowin said: Have you checked the trail camera yet? Looking to set it out tonight. Place we plan to set it, is about 30 or so miles away. We just haven’t got out that way just yet, its right off the side of a paved road, we always see tracks in the mud there, and its a desolate area. It’s a cell cam too, so its even betterererer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
