Wood Island Seguin Holding up the sky No one told the bird Canon fodder

You can tell summer has arrived by the humidity (haze) in the air. All that's left for these old pilings to do is to hold up the sky. One bird's exclusive domain. This is on the other side of Wood Island, which we walked to. One view from inside F...

Entering the cove Fellow paddlers Island Island's end

Kayaking last weekend off of Simpson's point. It was a bit breezy, but not too choppy. Most of the photos I took while out in open water weren't very good, due to wave-wobble and sea spray, but here are a few. This first is entering a sheltered co...

Bald and Streaked mountains Bald mountain peak

Here's one of Maine's seven peaks named "Bald Mountain." This one's in Woodstock, although you'd never know, as access is through Sumner (and finding the trail ain't entirely easy). We climbed it Sunday. We were planning to climb Streaked (to the ...

Morse Mt looking southwest 5-10-08 Sand storm 5-10-08 Gull ballet 5-10-08

The weather doesn't matter, Morse is always a good trip. This is looking down from the 'mountain,' about half way to the beach from the parking lot. It was windy - the lighter colored areas are blowing sand. A gull entertained us while we ate our ...

Stuck in the mud 5-5-08 Clammers (detail) 5-5-08 Apple trees 5-5-08

Here are some photos I took Monday at Maquoit Bay. It was low tide. Why is a canoe just sitting there in the mud? It's waiting for its clammer. Note the plastic sled! Apple trees. They'll look quite different in a couple of weeks.

We've had a lot of rain over the last couple of days. Combined with the spring melt coming down the river from the mountains, the Androscoggin River's really roaring. Here are a couple of photos and a short video (turn the sound on).
