A timelapse of driving our RV, a Tiffin Allegro Bus motorhome, 324 miles from Trenton, Maine to Foxboro, Massachusetts.
Travel from Trenton, Maine to Foxboro, Massachusetts
We drove our coach 324 miles, about six hours of driving, from Trenton, Maine to Foxboro, Massachusetts.
Here’s a map showing our route, heading southwest — the start of our westward journey, which will culminate in reaching our Washington home base in September:

RV podcast: The RV Atlas
Another RV-themed podcast that I enjoy is The RV Atlas podcast.
It is hosted by Stephanie and Jeremy Puglisi, with hundreds of episodes on RV topics including tips, RV reviews, interviews with guests, and more.
It can be a bit ad-heavy, but often has interesting content.
Listen in your preferred podcast app.
Sugar Bakery
We walked across the road from the campground to Sugar Bakery to pick up some lunch and snacks.
They are cash only — something their website doesn’t mention. They would have made at least twice as much from us if they accepted credit cards. They do have an ATM inside, but that’s even more hassle. With modern technology, there’s no excuse to not accept credit cards and tap payments.





Pastries for lunch and moon pies:

Momo’s Cheesecakes
We stopped by Momo’s Cheesecakes in Ellsworth, Maine to buy some cheesecake slices.
This isn’t your typical shop: it’s like an extra-fancy farm stand, where you self-serve whole or slices of cheesecakes and other goodies, and pay via cash boxes or Venmo. An excellent idea!






Our selections:

Tasty cheesecakes, too.
Acadia National Park: Schoodic Peninsula
We drove to the Schoodic Peninsula in Acadia National Park in Maine, including the Rockefeller Welcome Center in historic Rockefeller Hall and Schoodic Point.
Here’s an interactive map of our route:

Acadia National Park: Cadillac Mountain sunrise
There’s only one part of Acadia National Park that requires a timed entry ticket, and that’s the Cadillac Mountain summit road. It is a popular place to visit, especially for dawn, as it is (for part of the year) the first place in the US to see the sunrise. We managed to snag one of the limited sunrise tickets, and got up at 3 AM to experience it.

Archie’s Lobster
We ate at Archie’s Lobster in Bass Harbor, Maine.









Nice scenery, but not quite as tasty as the little lobster pound by the campground.
Acadia National Park: west loop
We drove the west-side loop in Acadia National Park in Maine, including Carroll Family Homestead, the Seawall area, and the iconic Bass Harbor Head Light Station.
Here’s an interactive map of our route, with some alternative stops marked:

Acadia National Park: east loop
We drove around the main park loop in Acadia National Park in Maine, including the main visitor center, a nature center, Thunder Hole, and Jordan Pond.
