Yep, Pat and I and another couple went for all three days. We ate lobster and checked out the fall colors. A nice few days to relax.

I made a deer hunting trip to Maine about 20 years ago , the first three days I was there I swear I ate lobster three meals a day

To be honest I had never cared much for lobster until I went there , I've always been more of a Chesapeake Bay Blue Crab person . But after that trip I had a new found taste for lobster as well !

Good to see someone here got them, they were in a past Julia auction with a really high reserve price. If you search back, the owner posted a story about how the set came together. He owned one and found the second consecutive serial number gun at a gun show.

I bought my 24" GHE Damascus 16 at a gun show. Some months later, I got a call from the seller telling me that the consigner had found the other two sets of barrels and forends in his gun room. He had forgotten that it was a three barrel set. It seems like most of our Parkers have some kind of story.
