The state of Maine has always held a special place in my heart. As a kid, we camped at Hadley’s Point Campground just outside of Bar Harbor, Maine constantly. When I was able to take my wife Becky to Acadia National Park 10 years ago, it was when I made my decision to invest in camera equipment to showcase the wildlife I came across during my hiking and outdoor escapades.
We were fortunate enough to be able to take a long vacation this year, the first in roughly 5 years. In typical form, we had a lot planned, but left plenty of wiggle room in case our plan took a scenic detour. Not wanting to lose a half day to driving, we got up at 1:30am(!) to reach our first stop at daybreak – Fort Williams Park in Cape Elizabeth, Maine. You know I had my Ningxia and Ningxia Nitro before starting that drive to keep me on point. 😛
