My thoughts and observations of what is and what should be
Time waits for no one, and the summer hours pass so quickly, So we gathered for a few moments to camp again with the QCMOTC. Ya, I know, life is so busy and we all have the same amount of time, But it’s always fun to unwind with this group, sharing is sublime.

Days 1-11. Maine. Hastings Campground. Martin Stream Campground. Schoodic Woods Campground. This year, for some reason, the twins and I decided to do a Camping Adventure 2018.
