20 July 2022 US1 South

While trying to find a source for Etta’s insulin in this area, Leslie finally found a vet in Bucksport that would sell us the prescription. Since the vet was just off US1 headed south from Ellsworth, we decided to make it a day and take US1 south to visit some of the quaint sea side towns. Out first stop was the vet in Bucksport to pick up the insulin and put it on ice. From Ellsworth to Bucksport, US1 is far inland from the coast and was not very scenic. After the vet, we continued south on US1 through the small ports of Belfast, Ducktrap, Camden, Rockland, and Bath before jumping back on I-95 back to Bangor. We were disappointed that US1 was so far inland from the coast that it really was not very scenic. We stopped in Belfast and had lunch at a little pub but it did not have views of the port. It turned into a very long day.
