Making our way through Maine, will be in New Hampshire in an hour, then no seatbelts required, cheap, cheap booze, Looking for a bottle of Crawford's Scotch! Trish took a small bottle of water from Front Harbour and hopes to dump it in the Pacific ocean in a few months. The only toll we ever pay is at the Saint John bridge, it's 50 cents and I usually just go right through!, this time a guy came running at us across three lanes of traffic, made me back up and cross two lanes of traffic so he could charge us 75 cents for a recreational vehicle. Gas right across the border is 17 cents a litre cheaper, that's including the exchange. Then of course, as soon as we filled up, we started seeing stations selling it even lower. $2.75 at the border and we seen as low as $2.59 a gallon (US) before we reached Bangor, stayed in Bangor last night, plugged in at an Irving Stn near the delivery entrance. There's UI, then there was EI, Trish and I are on IE, (illegal electricity). The beer truck showed up for a delivery at 5 AM, so we were on the road early! At dusk we watched for Moose, but instead almost hit a herd of turkeys crossing the hwy!
