A Little Maine Gem
This past Friday, I took the kids to this cute little beach in Phippsburg. It's actually called Bate-Morse Mountain Conservation Area or as I've heard it called Morse Mountain. I don't know why, but I had no idea this place existed. I need to get out more. We had three busy days earlier in the week in Boston, so what we really needed was a low key adventure day in our own state. What is it with boys climbing up on huge rocks and insisting on tons of pictures? What's great about it is that it's a 2 mile hike into the mountain and beach area and then a 2 mile hike back. The hike isn't challenging at all and the hiking trail is quite wide and easy to walk on. I did use my Garmin to measure the distance to ease my curiosity and so I could really answer the questions like "how much longer? are we there yet?"
