John D. Rockefeller Jr. was busy in 1919 when Acadia National Park was founded. His dream was to have roads on the island that would be used just for carriages or horses. (At the same time the state of Maine decided that the island could be opened up to cars.) So using his own money he built the carriage roads and also some beautiful bridges. They are marvelous roads-gravely, hilly and 45 miles of them. Fun!
