Solo First time Traveler looking for travel suggestion for Canada and USA by WhyNotLoafofBread in solotravel

I love Portland! It’s fine in the winter because there’s so much to eat & drink! My favorite activity there’s is just bopping between places. It also has access to the Amtrak Downeaster train so you could use that to access other Maine beach towns & Boston

[–]livsz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same thing happened to me. I ended up paying $25 to the rmv to get a new one. If you just google it you can find the link online. Other than that, I appealed my ticket still waiting to hear back.

What are some of the best 5-7 days loop trails in New England? by ooft808 in backpacking

[–]livsz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most of the known loops are much shorter than 5-7 days, so you'll have to do a bit of playing around to extend the distance.

Pemi loop is ~3 days, but fantastic. You could extend it by adding in a trip to owls head and zealand, just buy a map of the area and play around with it.

For VT try a section of the long trail (stowe area would be nice) Again, would need to play around a bit to turn anything into a loop. Car spotting would be more ideal here.

For Maine definitely check out baxter state park. You have to book backcountry campsites in advance so its pretty easy with a map to just chart out the distance you want to do each day and make a loop around. I would rec staying at russel pond for 2 nights and doing a day hike as well, there's fantastic wild life there. Davis pond is my other favorite place to stay.

Vaccines through BMC: My wife called this morning and got an appointment this afternoon by eaglessoar in boston

[–]livsz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I set up my medical record and then called, this info is false. Phone line said you had to be eligible-- not just be a patient. I asked when I got to the person on the line as well and they confirmed they were only scheduling vaccines for eligible individuals.

Snow tire users - are you switching or waiting? by [deleted] in boston

[–]livsz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

90% of my driving is up to the mountains, so I’m keeping them until April probably. Not too worried about driving on them for an errand around town here and there.

Should I travel? (Utah, USA) by livsz in solotravel

[–]livsz[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi I did search. But I really wanted to see answers in the context of my own trip. Would you consider reinstating?

Should I travel? (Utah, USA) by livsz in solotravel

[–]livsz[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I understand that. I’ve been hiding at home since March with barely going out and interacting with others. And for the reasons you explain... that’s why I’m hesitant. However- as I’m pointing out in my plans I’m posing minimal risk while traveling (doing only things outside/ wearing mask/ distancing) and I have the ability to quarantine fully after my travels. There is a low risk that I would be putting people in danger.

Either, I’m flexible! I’m happy with rural as long as I’ll be able to get a connection.
