Seaview Campground, Eastport, ME

Back in the states.  Still can not use my smart phone or mifi or this campgrounds wifi.  Verison wants to lock on a Canada tower so it is roaming.  Talked to Verizon and that is hopeless.  Although during my many conversations with the seaview Campgound owners they assured me they had wifi, that isn't what is happening.  If you need to be connected at all, do not come to this campground.  It is beatiful here, if we where just here for a couple of days things would be OK.

Today I have come to the Easport, ME, public library to check my emails and post to my blog.  Wow, wifi and internet can work!!!!!  This building was built in 1895, wonderful high ceilings and wood moldings typical of those times.  I can 'feel' the history and warmth.  I love it.

From the years of 1962 thru 1970 I was employed at the Ascension Public Library.  Even offered the librarian ship when the new  building was built.  I put the first card-ex together in Gonzales and was issued the second library card that fit in the electric stamper thing they used.  I was almost 12 when they started paying me (from the late charge money).  I made 25 cents an hour and worked 2 hours  every afternoon and on Saturaday mornings.  I had more money than any of my classmates.

Craig is on his way to pick me up and we plan to walk around downtown Eastport, ME.  Jackie and Walt will join us.  We first meet Jackie and Walt in Goshen, IN, at the HRRRC maintenance session rally.  Wonderful, fun couple, they have traveled from central CA.  This couple first meet here, on the east coast, some years ago.
