Exile #1, Exile #4 and I set out early this morning to hike before it got too hot. We headed for Pismire Mountain, a trail we didn’t think we’d tackled before. The shade of the forest was nice, and there were many interesting plants and fungi along the way. Although the trail was steep and we were soon feeling the heat and humidity, the climb was worth it, for the reward of a wonderful view across lakes and mountains as far as the eye could see (which was probably across into New Hampshire).
The continuing stories of a British family exiled (by choice) in the US and finding themselves in southern Maine.
