I am going to be traveling up to Maine between 27 July and 31 July 
1984 and would like to request some information.

	1. I will be entering the Maine Triathlon and would
	   like to know of any places between Portland and
	   Augusta where I might be able to rent a canoe---
	   if I can then I can fly to Portland and forego
	   a very long car ride.

	2. I would like to spend Saturday at a beach somewhere
	   in southern Maine with my SO---do you have any 
	   suggestions and/or recommendations(such as Wells
	   Beach or Old Orchard, etc.)?

	3. We need a place to stay in or around Augusta on
	   Saturday night---are there any reasonably priced
	   boarding houses or hotels that you would suggest?

	4. Finally, we would like to spend the last two days
	   in Acadia Natl Park.  What campgrounds/boarding
	   houses/hotels are there that are really nice?
	   What are the must things to see and do?

	5. Any other suggestions of things to do that would
	   enhance the enjoyment of our trip would be greatly
	   appreciated.

By the way, we both love the outdoors and nature so we would be more
inclined to hikes, etc. and would like to do some camping in Acadia 
if possible.  Please feel free to respond to any or all of the
above requests.

Thank you very much in advance for any information that you provide.
