We are on the last leg of our fall vacation. It’s been wonderful, hiking every day for 5-7 miles with rock scrambles and rewards of awesome vistas. We left The Lodge at Moosehead Lake in Maine this morning after another breakfast of handmade blueberry pancakes by their in-house chef. I had made plans to stay…
