Eustis Event 2009

[dubord207]

I've had a strange week. Maybe I'm in rut too! My neck is all swelled up and while we were putting the kayaks on the rack today I felt the urge to rub my head on the kayak rack. And to top it off, I was in court today with a young lawyer and I felt an irresistable urge to pee on his brief case! Hope I'll get over this by the time I head north!

Tonight it's nearly 70 degrees here in Eustis, just a few clouds and a crescent moon hanging in the western sky. Saw 3 moose yesterday, one by the road. Then we met a cow moose on our road, stayed a distance behind her so we wouldn't spook her into the traffic (what little there is) on Route 27. And then a bull moose came galloping down to meet her. He ran off, she followed for a bit, then ran back towards us. Finally they both disappeared into the woods to do "moosey" things. It is the rut, you know! And there's a large eagle hanging around near the bridge, brown. How do you tell if it's an immature bald eagle or a golden eagle? Yes, I know, golden eagles are rare....Wish you were here....

Ah, Jean - those be questions you can ask the NA guide who will be accompanying us on our trek up your way. We are so ready to be in Moose country and enjoy their land up your way.

Thanks K.L. for the answer to my question. Is anyone bringing a four wheeler or would it be a good idea to bring ours? We are new to the area and don't know all these answers. Thanks.

I don't think anybody brought any last year, but the Eustis/Stratton area has some beautiful trails. You'll see a lot of ATV's about, some that will be moose hunting. But having a 4 wheeler will cut into your caching time!

There isn't enough bandwidth for what I could write. Besides, I've been hounding on Nick enough the past few.
I've received my ACME Beer Drinking Dog Repeller Kit yesterday. Later, I'll review some Wile E Coyote game tapes. Should be fine thru Sunday morning.

Am recruiting new cachers to join in the fun this weekend! We'll be staying at the group site. Looking forward to it!

Hey there,

I'm hoping to attend the event on Saturday and I am traveling from Portland. Is anyone driving from Southern Maine? I can meet you within 30 miles or so if you are traveling from somewhere nearby. I am flexible about when I can leave/how long I can stay, but ideally you are leaving Friday evening sometime. I can split fuel costs, etc.! Let me know if you think you can help me out, I'd really appreciate it! Thanks a bunch

At this point my thought is to leave friday evening from brunswick area and coming back on saturday.
