Maine, Dixfield - Thursday, June 18, 2015 - Pejepscook Campground

We’ve stopped for the night at a very nice little country campground on US 2 just outside of Dixfield, Maine.  Here we are in site 12, 50 amp service and water, no sewer hook ups but we don’t need them for the night.  They have a dump station for folks who need it.  They offer special rates for veterans, our rate for this evening was $24.

 

 

We left New Hampshire early this morning after dropping off the old coach batteries at Tractor Supply in Plymouth.  Scenery is still beautiful.

I don’t know the name of this mountain but it is awesome.  Its on I-93 north of Lincoln.  This thing is just massive.

 

 

 

Other nearby mountains are impressive also.

 

 

 

A small lake, white birch trees and blue lupines add to the beauty of the area.

 

 

Once we enter Maine there are no east-west interstates so we will be traveling on two lane roads to our next destination near Bar Harbor, Main on the other side of the state.

Scenery looks about the same as New Hampshire.

 

 

As we were trying to watch for how US 2 twisted through Bethel, Main I spotted Paul Bunyan and Blue.

These old homes looked interesting too.

 

 

A river runs along US 2, it is wide and running very rapidly right now.  I asked the campground owner the name of the river because it runs along the campground also – it was an Indian name that started with an A, that’s all I can remember.

 

 

The Pejepscook (also an Indian name) Campground has a small general store.

 

 

I was intrigued by the railings on the bath house.  They are made from old Singer sewing machine stands.

 

 

This campground hosts the Girl Scouts a couple of times a year and they love the teepees.
