August 30:  Down East Circle Route Completed.

     101 days, 3,000 miles, 5 states, and 5 provinces later, we are back in Camden.  Today dawned a little gray, and I worried about the possibility of rain (and it did sprinkle, right after Dan said there was nothing in the forecast) but by the time we hauled anchor, it was sunny and hot.
     We picked up Dan's folks Al and Marnie, and our sons Joe, and Billy, as well as Billy's girlfriend Tam, at Lincolnville Beach.  We headed out into the Bay to cruise around and have lunch.  The sea was calm, the winds were light, it was the perfect day and the perfect conclusion to our adventure.

Heading into Camden Harbor

     We came into busy Camden Harbor about one pm, dropped our guests off at the town dock, and posed for a picture, courtesy of the harbormaster assistant.

     We're in town for a couple of weeks - Dan has projects to do, I intend to do some cleaning and major provisioning, before we head out again and down the ICW to the Bahamas.  This has been a great experience.  We met so many nice people, and hope to see some of them again as we journey South.  We'll continue to blog once we set out again.
