8.10 Friday- Just a few pictures as we travel to the Acadia National Park to witness Thunder Hole. To get there we must go through Bar Harbor, ME.


The views from the road are just short of awesome.

See everyone standing around, well that’s thunder Hole. You’ll see it better below. The idea behind this act of Nature is that the water gushes in, thousands of gallons of water, squeezes its way in that narrow canal above or below in a better picture, then smacks itself (the water) against the rock you see in the picture below. That’s it in a nut shell, oh, and that make a big thunder sound.


What everyone seems to forget to tell you is that this all happens about two-hours BEFORE high tide, not at high tide as one might assume. The crowds still come even though many are very disappointed.

There’s not much else to tell, only that I hope you enjoy the pictures from this venue.

Hope I don’t have to mention that, that’s us.





Just a small gift shop, we’re both ready for a root beer. After our root beer we must get on the road and find Wildwood Stables, our next venue.

If you cannot decide what this picture is all about it’s a wild turkey in the 2 o’clock position in the picture above.


At this point we’re leaving Thunder Hole in search of the Visitors Building, otherwise the big Gift Shop.



I thought this was it, but no. This is only the entrance to the “walkway” to the visitor’s Center. Oh! forgot to mention, it’s a 52 step climb up to reach the center and I’m exhausted and my day is only beginning. Up we go!!!


Did make it up but not much to talk about there, the root beer shop was more exciting. Next stop The Wildwood Stables.
