Like I said in my last Maine post, see Acadia. Go for a day or three and say you did it. Then boogie north as fast as you can. (Or maybe go slowly and stop at the farmstands and every scenic lookout like we do.) Because the state parks up here in the most easterlyContinue reading “Maine, Part IV”

Podcast: Kevin
Grab a cup of Blue Bus Coffee, everyone. That’s Kevin Anderson’s own coffee company, by the way. Rest assured, you won’t need the jolt to keep you awake though. Kevin has some wild stories to tell from his time riding around out west.
Maine, part 3
Acadia National Park—it’s well worth seeing. We did the seaside trail walk, which allowed us to see some of the more famous spots. We also hiked South Bubble and Acadia Mountain. Although we did wake up early enough to summit Cadillac Mountain for its famed sunrise hike, the trailheads were already packed. We opted toContinue reading “Maine, part 3”
Maine, Part 2
We slowed down a bit as Miracle is convalescing, which means slow walks and eating more seafood. It’s not all that bad, I suppose.
Review: Diesel Parking Heater
This one is for our buddy, Doug, who recommended I double check our heater as we head farther north. On Memorial Day weekend Miracle and I took the bus to Ohio Wine country on our way to the Finger Lakes in New York. Normally Memorial Day is marked by the higher temperatures as pools reopenContinue reading “Review: Diesel Parking Heater”
Podcast: John Wilson
John is a man who came prepared for an interview. He had a ton of stories about the two buses he has owned—one that we drove around Chicago and the other that he calls The Chalk Bus.
Maine, Part 1
Unfortunately, the exhaust system weld job we got in New York did not hold up. As we trolled our way through these quaint little seaside towns it sounded like I was riding the fifth horse of the apocalypse—the one that sounds like one of those pickup trucks with a smokestack and flags for a candidateContinue reading “Maine, Part 1”
New Hampshire in review
It was an all-to-brief stay in New Hampshire as we lay tracks toward the Maine coast. While the green rounded peaks of Vermont are serene, the White Mountains of New Hampshire are dramatic and rugged and call for adventure. Or at least a rainy day hike to see some waterfalls.
Vermont in review
Miracle says she fell in love with me in Vermont. It was the first big trip we took—a meandering week-long excursion into the lower portion of the Green Mountain State. We drive the Prius down the interstate and stayed in an AirBnB. My excuse for going was that I wanted to look at tiny homes.Continue reading “Vermont in review”
Piperbus Auto
I wrote about Piperbus briefly in a post earlier this week. Let me just say that I was throughly pleased with Tracy’s attention to my bus. After we did our interview, she said she would give Adie the once-over. She quickly caught a few problems, including a major oil leak. Within a few minutes, sheContinue reading “Piperbus Auto”
