    Fun fact I learned while in Maine - the difference between a pond and a lake is not the size of the area the body of water covers, but its depth. A pond is shallow enough that the sunlight gets all the way to the bottom while a lake is deeper!

    Morning Kelly! More slack packing, nice! With Toasty being your Sherpa it must have been a delight! Huge shout out to momma and papa Popeye! Acadia is a beautiful area, I hope they had a blast! What a beautiful day! The weather was on point yet again! That dinner spot was like a Maine postcard. Bagels and baby food with a view. Not a bad morning! Well except for the cloud attacking you of course. Thanks for the quacks Toasty! So awesome. Good decision to stop into town while you can. Rangeley is a hella cute town too, I’m gonna add that hostel to the list! What a baller day with Kelly and the boys. 🙏 Thanks for bringing us along today. I hope tomorrow’s miles are kind. Keep truckin’ and be well.

    You were made to do this. You make it fun, you keep it real and share so many funny moments. My favorite is when someone, probably Toasty, is videoing you on the trail and comes up from behind and gets right in your face. Way, way funny! You definitely have a good flair for comedy.

    It was a beautiful day to hike. Nice pictures of Mooselookmeguntic Lake and Toothacker Island. One of my favorite yearly drives during foliage. Videoing the autumn leaves on the ground while you hike is really cool. Lots of fun stuff to do around Rangeley, (pronounced Rainjlee). When we went this year we hung out awhile at the AT trailhead in hopes that by some wild chance you might be crossing in that area. I love living in NH, but Maine is so much bigger and a lot less crowded.

    For a second, I anticipated IB Tat's voice! I am still recovering from COVID and am not 100%in charge upstairs! 🤣
    Clouds and fog enveloping the pond was fascinating.
    Fwiw: the plural of moose poop is meese peep. I coined this phrase when hiking with my son when he was about 6.😁
    There's an "angel" in Rangeley - pronunciation wise. Rumor has it that there was an actual one there one day earlier this year. 😊

    Loved the clip with the sunset in the background. It was so beautiful with the gold tones from the sun and the changing leaves. I didn't know u were still on the road until you panned the camera. And as always, you made me laugh! Hope you're enjoying the makeup miles. -God bless.

    I hope you chat with some native Maine folks , especially if they are older , say 60 and above ...you need to hear the Maine accent, very interesting and stronger than the NH accent ....young folks are losing the accent which is a little sad ....happy trails ...

    Moose are part of the deer family like elk, deer, and reindeer that's why their plural form is the same, it's regularity. Plus it's not an old english word it's native american. Just some fun facts. Also I did get a laugh out of meese.

      I was wondering the same thing. I suspect that a couple of the guys were romantically involved. They were confusing saddleback with broke back mountain.

    Boy, I’ve been to every trail crossing in Maine a dozen times…. I’m seeing now I missed you by a day or two here n there….your video is a little confusing… at this point you should put the dates of where you were… so we don’t have to count back from April 10…. I’m surprised you didn’t film the view up from the parking lot of Grafton Notch SP…. The huge rock wall… or the beautiful spot before you came down where the trail splits off with the eyebrow trail… you reached the Hight of Land on Rt 17 but stopped the video before you reached the best spot…. and you didn’t film the wonderful town of Andover (lol) ….. the place where you ended up in this video… was it Rangeley or Stratton?
    The canoe crossing is coming up and I wonder if your going to go to Northern Outdoors…. Everyone skips it… there’s free hot showers, a hot tub, hanky sac…. a big beautiful room with a brewery and a swimming pool…. Guess I’ll have to wait n see…. It’s fun seeing your videos of my state… your just not filming the spots I would have…. Still fun seeing it all through your eyes…

    • @kellyhays23
      @kellyhays23  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Dates are in description. Grafton notch view is in the video prior. Pretty sure eyebrow trail view is in prior video too. I got too distracted by food and getting my pack to film over at the lookout. I never went into Andover
