Peter takes the Old Chevy on a foliage odyssey through the mountains of northern Maine. He meets some low income Mainers building their own homes with no money down, makes a bid to chase down a love-sick moose, and explores the mystery of why wild bees are failing to do their part to prop up the blueberry business. Plus, he profiles a small-town clergyman whose unusual art work has made it to the galleries of New York and Boston, and learns that the Maine country fair is alive and well, despite big-city predictions that they're dying out.Show Resources:
