The Beeman is Back from Canada… Now in Fort Kent in northern Maine ….the whole re-entry process took about 2 and a half hours…. phone calls were made to Niagra to ”verify” that I had indeed left on the date I claimed and ….they wanted to know 3 USA people who would ”rescue” me if need be…
After this I tottered across the street to take a room at the only motel in town no matter WHAT the cost… but it was sold out … the kindly concerned manager there looked me up and down and immediately gave me a cot in the conference room….10 dollars;

I’d been on the road hitch hiking all day since 6 am… a musician I met on the ferry across the St Lawrence Seaway gave a ride to within 10 miles of the border…
(I got onto the ”wrong” side of the St L seaway by getting a very good lift from Montreal which went well beyond Quebec City. but on the north side of the seaway)Assuming all goes well I will then drop down to Milinocket and from there enter the Baxter National Park…. I just head off down the AT to cover as many miles as I can before the end of September. Will be checking in soon…
