Fort Williams and three local lighthouses

Portland Headlight and the coast. I missed getting the shot I wanted because my camera zoomed in too much. I've just ordered a wide angle lens to help possibly remedy the situation. I'll have to go back and try again.





We followed the trail away from the big fort and Portland Headlight, and found that there was a mini fort where I hadn't known one existed. I took a few pictures of that.







Made a quick stop to take a picture of Spring Point.







And then headed to Bug Light to take a few more pictures.

Fort Popham

Prouts Neck in Scarborough & Fort Williams State Park, South Portland, Maine

These were taken during the early afternoon, so the lighting wasn't entirely flattering. You work with what you've got though. I went out to Prouts Neck for the first time, and revisited Fort Williams.

Fort Knox and Bar Harbor

Yesterday, my mother and I had decided to spend the weekend in Bar Harbor. Along the way, we were driving by Fort Knox in Bucksport, and decided to stop for a picnic and to take pictures.



One of the first things we did when we arrived at Bar Harbor, was walk down to the actual Harbor. I was checking out the boats, and admiring a huge sailboat. I said something like "that's a great boat", when this lady near me asks me which boat I'm talking about. I point to which one, and she points to another and says it's Sean Connery's boat! Apparently he was around town somewhere. The 2nd picture is Sean's boat, the other two are of the boat I fell in love with.



This morning when we woke up, we went to Acadia (the parts of it that are free to enter) and took pictures. The weather wasn't very nice, but we caught a little bit of time where there was no rain.
