A Sunday Drive to See MDI and Acadia Fall Foliage

Mainers certainly know how good we got it this time of year when it comes to living here.  The tourists are pretty much gone.  Only ones left are the leaf peepers, and who among us doesn’t appreciate the great fall foliage we get here.

The temperatures are nice. Not cold yet. And the heat and humidity are behind us for another year.

How about a nice Sunday drive.

Destination Acadia National Park.

What I am about to tell you starts with the advice that if you are going to participate you do as you are instructed before you go on the ride. Respect the speed limit.  Respect your fellow drivers. Follow the rules of the Park.

The event is The Annual Downeast Maine Cruise.

Car enthusiasts from all over meet this Sunday morning at the Walmart parking lot in Ellsworth and together go for a long drive as a group

Meet between 9:30 and 9:45 and leave at 10 a.m.

Hard to keep your eyes on the road as you check out the views, but you know the drill.

If you are continuing into Acadia for the Park Loop at the end of the ride, you do need a park pass.

This is a cruise, not a rally.

And these are some sweet rides. If you witness the ride this Sunday morning, may it bring an all day smile to your face.
