Subject: RE: Popsracer Very sad. I too appreciated discussions with Steve. I recall last year I was planning a marathon and he shared this story below. It's what made me choose the MDI marathon, and it was as unforgettable as he describes. I wish I'd had a chance to me him in person.

Well now this is interesting. A marathon in Maine! I've always wanted to visit Maine and this would be a good excuse. I grew up in Portland, OR so I've long had a desire to visit the "other" Portland. Maine on October 18th would be really gorgeous, with the colors shown in the photos on the websites. This is a race I've wanted to do for many years. We've been to Acadia National Park several times and it is one of our favorite places to visit. You will not find a more beautiful course. And Bar Harbor is one of our favorite towns for just strolling through shops, eating and drinking. It is a bit of a way to get there but you'll never forget it. Last two times we were there we stayed in a small historic inn on the waterfront that was out of this world. Can't go wrong with this one Bruce. You are going to have a tough time making up your mind. |
