October 7, 2007 we are now in Kennebunkport, Maine in a RV Park called the "Red Apple" Campground. Nice place, a lot of Seasonals, but tomorrow the whole place closes down. Most of these places after this Holiday weekend close for the winter, so it's been fun trying to find places to stay. Although the weather is a heck of a lot warmer then it normally is it is still the time of year that they close down. After we left this morning we stopped in Gardiner Maine, because it is Sunday and that's out breakfast out day, and there was a place that Lee and Vicki had heard about from the show "Diners, Drive-ins and Dives. It is one of the Guy Fieri's shows and it was a diner. Very neat place, very small, breakfast was great, but the waitresses needed to do a lot of work on their attitudes. There were only 6 tables that could hardly hold 4 people then there was the counter which on one side could seat 6 people and the other side 6 people. The place was split in half and each waitress only took care of the people on their half, because the place was crowded and they only had counter space Dave and I sat on 1/2 and Lee, Vicki and Ava sat on the other half. When more counter space opened up by Dave and I, Lee, Vicki and Ava moved over by us, well their waitress was upset with them because she lost out on her tip I guess. When our waitress brought us our breakfast Dave had asked for more coffee, which she gave to Dave and I then she walked right by Lee. Lee had to stop her and ask for more coffee even tho he was sitting right next to Dave then, she was getting the tip now I guess, she should have been happy to wait on him, who the heck knows. That is the only complaint that we all had, the food was great, but for such a small place the waitresses should really work together, who knows maybe they had a fight with each other. enough of that. Hope what I said makes some kind of sense.
After setting up camp we drove out to the "Bush Compound" where former President Bush lives, very impressive place to see from a distance. Daddy Bush was in town so the place was crawling with Secret Service, SUV's everywhere, and yes they were black ones. We then drove around town and went to the beach and walked around then back to the coaches and had a great seafood dinner that Dave had made. He had made the broth and vegetables yesterday and tonight he added the fresh mussels, clams (all in shell) then some white fish. Vicki and Ava made a salad and we also had some fresh baked bread and the dinner was great. We then sat by the fire, and thought about "what the un-retired folks are doing now", just kidding, it was a great evening. Tomorrow, we plan on going into town again, I didn't mention that when we drove thru today the place was packed with people, great weather and a Holiday weekend so we didn't get to stop and see anything. We will check it out tomorrow and then get back on the road again, we have to be in Foxboro, Maine tomorrow and will be there for the next 4 nights. Remember the place we are at tonight is closing down tomorrow, so we have to leave.
