THE MAINE COAST

If you happen to visit the rocky coast of Maine, you will be met by the beautiful Atlantic Ocean. You will surely encounter a true scavenger, the seagull. And If you happen to look out on the horizon you might see a lobster boat returning for the day.Off in the distance the Calender Island's of Casco Bay. You might see sloops passing in the evening breeze. And a head light
A most famous head light
The majestic Portland Head Light, located in Cape Elizabeth Maine.
Maine worth a visit, worth a lifetime.

Hi, thank you for the lovely pictures. It has been well over 25 years since I have been to Maine; visited THIS lighthouse; LOVED it!Loved everything and everywhere we visited! Maine is an absolutely BEAUTIFUL pleace to see. I fell in love with it and would have moved there in a heartbeat. But alas, I'm still in Florida! LOL

Thank you for bringing back such wonderful memories for me through your pictures.

Have a great day!

What a lovely post Julie. I'd love to visit Maine one day, but then I'd love to visit LOADS of places. Not enough time or money for everything unfortunately! (-: I love that first photo too. A lovely composition. Were these taken with the G10??? (-:

I love Maine and had so hoped to take a trip up the coast with my husband this summer. Unfortunately that never happened. Such a beautiful place!

Awesome pictures! I visited Bar Harbor Maine many years ago, while in high school. I would love to return. I have many memories of the beauty of the coast.

Have only gone once to Maine - spent most of it in the York hospital with my child who'd been bitten by a brown recluse spider. I'm sure my next visit will be less traumatic!

Susan, how horrible. I do hope you return for a visit. I will now be on the outlook for this Brown Recluse spider. I hope your child is doing well.
