By the way, I haven't yet posted (yet) about the Owls Head Transportation Museum and it's another place for you to include cause Marty would really like to see all the antique cars and more.Beatrice P.

You are most welcome to stop in anytime - hope you will caus we really read and enjoy all comments and visits. Our home state is and we visit CT relatives in New London several times a year. We also have friends near Blacksburg and have been there too. Glad you liked our home; yours in WV is lovely too :-) BTW my car repair should be done by the time we return home; hope yours is "all better" soon. I'll be back to visit your blog too!<br /><br />Hi Diana, Welcome to our blog! Yes by all means do visit Maine, preferably in the fall - after the very busy summer tourist season. That's when the fall colors abound. This is our 1st visit so we are making the most of it and seeing as much as we can. The lighthouse view was worth the climb and the steps were not that bad - only look more exaggertaed in the photo. Hope you are feeling better and will return again soon. Were conntinuing our Maine tour the rest of this week in the Portland area. <br /><br />AC, this lighthouse was very attractive and indeed in great condition at least on the exterior that we saw. I read that the interior had been restored as well, but alas it's not open to the public.Beatrice P.

The east coast is on my bucket list! I've been all over the country except no further east than Indiana!<br />The view from the lighthouse was gorgeous!

It weasn't too windy when we were at Owls head Light, just a beautiful day with great views. Glad we cancelled the Sat trip and went on Sunday instead cause Sat was chilly and overcast. We were talking about a possible lighthouse tour, but on another trip.<br /><br />Hey Lois, this was a cute little lighthouse and not too bad a climb. And, even if the lighthouse was open it's just a short one to have climbed up, but alas it's not :-(<br /><br />HermitJim, the steps weren't that bad a climb, but yes we got some exercise walking around the park as well. You're very welcome for the vistas, my please, friend.<br /><br />YES Possum, Water views and WAIT WAIT there will be more cause we saw lobster boats AND then went to the Rockland breakwater and even walked it AND saw another lighthouse there..keep reading cause that one is coming up!Beatrice P.
