    All hail trail crews, one of the hardest working and least appreciated groups in the park service and other areas with trails. Always say thank you if you meet up with them.

    I enjoyed this video so much being from New England myself. You did such a beautiful job editing. I appreciate how talented you are at making your videos. It took me home. I only wish you could have been there at the peak of the season. You should make plans with Cassie to go back during the fall.

    When I visited Quoddy Light....The trail you walked...on a clear day you can see whales breaching...and that bog is just amazing...I felt I was   in another world...a different time. Maine is amazing!

    Definitely a gorgeous area and I’m with you, avoiding the crowds is always a preference!

    Agree totally with your thoughts on car tech. &nbsp; And to make it worse, all of the safety gadgets helped jack up the new car prices. And even if the tech packages are optional, you have to buy them to be able to &nbsp;get another unrelated feature you really want/need. &nbsp;So we pay for tech we don’t want. <br><br>Love your videos!
