It was wonderful to host Paul as he made his way through Down East Maine a few winters ago, making magic (like this shot) with his lens!

“Dappled sunlight beckons… and I find myself wanting to know where the lightness ends, the darkness begins, and every glorious stretch in between.”

A gaggle of turkeys, all in a row (there’s a missed childhood rhyme in there somewhere!)

When you’re hiking and find native plants that have been in the region for more than 9000 years? Priceless.

At the edge of the world, you remember why you came so far.

Historic Machiasport, from the ocean’s side, where there are always endless examples in the juxtaposition between fleeting and foundational.

How the fungus among us grow in the shelter of scraps of bark… abundance is everywhere.

Rainy afternoons are perfect for fires and fun cocktails… (this version of The Vesper made with 1908 Empress Gin, which has a beautiful purple hue) cheers!

“One if by land, two if by sea…” Maine’s beacons of light still tell us all we need to know.

Like water off a duck’s back… the fog unique to coastal communities has a way of highlighting life’s spontaneous moments.

So hard to capture the beauty of the night sky from our little spot in Maine, but the orange of the full moon and it’s trail across the water were too stunning the other night not to try…

We make it a point to hike the trail almost every time we’re in Maine… there’s almost nothing that compares to the way it feels like you’ve reached the edge of the world. But this past Sunday, we decided to go a little further north and see what the trail could offer us… and we weren’t disappointed. With easy access to private feeling beaches for picnics and trails that wove between moderate and difficult, the day was amazing, despite the fog with us the whole day. And for those of you mushroom enthusiasts, we must have passed more than a dozen varietals.
