So, I parked my car and walked into Acadia National Park. It was a glorious day to hike around Acadia, and it almost made me forget that I have a horrible 2-party system of government, neither of which represents The People. I will remember this come election time, and I hope everyone else does too! By the way, it’s really NOT difficult to step right over a barricade!
HOW RIDICULOUS locking people out of a national park!
Nobody cared - they parked and WALKED into the park!
UGH!
Once the sight of those barricades was behind me, I was able to enjoy this amazing park, as the creation of it was intended!
A beaver dam.
Cool spider!
This overlook is awesome. You could see cruise ships from here.
Oh, this is so beautiful and relaxing!
Some amazing fall colors in the park.
A nice, relaxing hike through some woods.
My backpack filled with snacks!!!
This is MY national park, and I had a great time here today!
Being a rebel with no cause has its drawbacks; we did get a ticket for moving barricades and driving into the park (walking was overlooked; driving, apparently, was a big no-no). That's ok, it was worth it. The Park Ranger was very nice, but gave us a stern warning and asked us to leave!
The day ended perfectly with this amazing night sky - the Moon and Venus shining brightly! (Open the pic to see Venus right below and to the right of the Moon.)
