EV Road Trip Day 15
Grogu kept watch to vanquish any spirits over night, and we enjoyed a nice breakfast at Longfellow’s Wayside Inn in Sudbury and then got a amazing tour of the historic Inn. We found a hidden chest in the ceiling of our room after hearing about the romantic notes left in the nooks and crannies of the room since the 1940s. We even added our own. The Inn was once owned by Henry Ford and Henry Wadsworth Longfellow’s “Tales of the Wayside Inn” (1863), a collection of poems based on Geoffery Chaucer’s, “The Canterbury Tales,” was written there. The first poem was, “Paul Revere’s Ride,” which became a national sensation.
We left Tesla Cache’s at the Auburn, MA, yesterday, and Seabrook, NH, and Freeport, ME today. We stopped at Damariscotta, Maine, to visit with Joe Lavendier, one of John’s AOF classmates, and his lovely bride, Marfie, and then went on to Camden, Maine, to see one of John’s ASU graduate classmates, Jamie Cook, for dinner and a walk along the harbor.
We are now a quarter of the way through our trip.
