From the land of the Bluenose.....the day had arrived and this bouy was sum happy youz. A month off and the first thing to do was make our way to the border crossing at Woodstock which we arrived promptly on time at..... St. Stephen......um! Crossed the border and spent the night in the first hotel that we came to. Sure Dennis Bates from that Hitchcock movie was lurking around outside. Felt sort of phys-co that stay.
Next morning it was off to Bangor then Augusta then Freeport for some shopping.
Four hours of pounding pavement and store floors and we had not purchased a thing. Seemed like to this bouy at least that the only thing that changed from store to store was the label on the clothes. Did have a great cup of coffee though.
Then drove to Augusta to Manchester.....no not the one that is home to Man you in the Premier League and stayed the night. Next Day Snowy acted as our guide dog to her place and we did the dew in front of th fire pit planning the next days dig with the crew.
The location for the dig was very scenic indeed
with the crew showing up in dribs and drabs.
Can't say I know who that fool was with a Bud in his hand at 8 in the morning!
Photo edited so beer disappears but not the bouy drinking it.
The dig was one and my photo finger primed!
A bouy and his toys!
Down the garden path with a Pro (doesn't leak so I'm told)
"What dig! I want some grub!"
Behind every gud lady a bunch of bouys.....left behind!
"Come on bouys. That tree can hold itself up!"
"I can't find anything in my purse. Krom where is my detector?"
"Still putt ting it together dear. Now where is the phase interchange converter at?"
Hunny Bunny under a bad sign meant fur dis bouy and his beer!
Anyway was sure nice to meet everyone and visit the great state of Maine and Denny's!
Finds for the hunt which we had to leave after a few hours as this bouy does not like night time driving!
Once home it was a quick unpack of the beer and the pizza that we ordered. Come Wednesday night it is time to pack once again as this bouy is off to the UK for his yearly 2 weeks of digging and Guinness!
