Went for a ride yesterday. Fall is coming, it’s starting to get a little chilly in the mornings. We left Gardiner about 10:00 am and headed west to Rumford. On Route 108 just before Rumford we passed another small field of sunflowers. It’s so neat to see as you drive up to the field. We stopped at the waterfalls rest area right in Rumford for a little break. From there we headed over to Andover and had lunch at the Little Red Hen restaurant right on Main Street.
They make all their own breads, great country style restaurant. They get people stopping on their way through that are hiking the Appalachian trail, cyclists, and campers. After lunch we headed over to the covered bridge that is just a few miles from the restaurant.
The bridge was built in 1867, and one of the few that you can still drive through. The roads after bridge is a quiet country road. We came up over a hill and there was a field of bisons. What a surprise to see about 20 of them. I pulled over and had to take a few pictures. That was the last thing I expected to see in Maine!
Was a fun day, still amazed that we saw all those bisons!
Love and Light to you all!
