    Great video! Beautiful color! On the CT this summer I had my eyes peeled for moose but I never got to see one.

    Necco Wafers are an OLD candy. I remember getting them at the movie theater when I was a kid and I'm 67! Congrats on 2000 miles! So close!

    My goodness hearing and seeing the moose that close would make me stay awake all night. And here is Chuck out there throwing sticks, geez, yikes. So brave!!! I'm glad the rest of the day was uneventful, and you had a great stay at the Roadhouse. Thanks for sharing the good, the bad, and now the scary. Lol.

    We were in NM awhile back & in one area they’d had the fires then the flooding. We saw groups of Moose in the subdivisions. Escaping the burn & needing grass & cover. So big, Heather they are bigger than a Toyota Rave. Like a short school bus I think 😂
    Cool story & great experience. Chuck has your back!
    I’m gonna miss y’all

    I always thought that getting to the end with the leaves turning would be perfection. Of course, up there, you could also get snow. Anyway, I'm really enjoying the fall colors of Maine. Oh, and I love Necco wafers, especially the black ones.

    Love the Maine Roadhouse. And I used to eat those NECCO candies when I was a kid. Now I wish I would have tried a Moxie when I was there to compare Lol!
    Congrats on 2000k what a milestone. I remember standing there and doing Fireball shots to celebrate! Good times and memories!!!

    I laugh when people say they want to see a moose. I only want to see one from across a river or in my car. They are huge! I have heard that if one charges you stand behind a big tree, because their vision is so bad. I have also heard stories that they have followed hikers on the trail.
    Congratulations on 2000!
    Great video today! The Fall colors are beautiful!

    I grew up eating Necco waffers, the news stand in the little town had a awesome "penny candy" rack. including those. Had to laugh at the Moxxie taste test, I just had my first one a few weeks ago and looked just like y'all trying to figured out what it tasted like. Friend who used to live up that way has a case shipped to him on a regular schedule. Congrats on passing 2K and surviving a moose visit!

    Congratulations on several milestones!! 2000 Miles, Moose and Moxie (3Ms!). Too bad you didn’t get to enjoy the moose from afar, they are magnificent beast. I’m with Chuck about Necco wafers, I know exactly what he was talking about but didn’t know the name; you just said the name like you just ate them yesterday 😂. Everyone would love you on their Trivia team. I never really associated them with Moxie though, but then again I only had it once and won’t have them again. Anyway, hope you guys are getting close because yeah, Winter is coming.
