2. If you plan to visit Acadia National Park this summer be prepared to spend a little more. A $5 price hike in the park entrance fee went into effect Friday bringing the cost from $25 to $30 per vehicle. Area residents and business owners said they are relieved because they feared the initially proposed increase to nearly triple the fee would have hurt visitation.

3. LeBron James’ record 51-point effort wasn’t enough to hold off the Golden State Warriors, who beat the Cleveland Cavaliers 124-114 in Game 1 of the NBA Finals on Thursday. While the Warriors started the fourth quarter with a six-point lead, the teams went back and forth; the game went into overtime thanks to a flub by Cavs player J.R. Smith–who incorrectly thought his team led by one and tried to dribble out the clock. In OT, the Warriors pulled away and a Tristan Thompson ejection led to a minor scuffle. While James became just the sixth player in N.B.A. history to score 50 points in a finals game, he also became the first of the six to take a loss.
