The Maine Event - Part One: We can see Canada from our car!

In June of 2004, [Maris] and I looked at the weather map, decided that the forecast for Maine looked better than the ones for the Outer Banks or the eastern Great Lakes, so north and east we went, making it from Maryland to Bangor on the first day. The next morning found us heading east on Rt. 9 through moose country (photos above and below), on our way to Calais.

Dead trees!

"It's enough to destroy a young moose's faith!"

Look! Canada! This little light is in Saint Stephen, New Brunswick - just across the river from Calais, Maine.

Seagulls on the U.S. side, awaiting visits from their Canadian relatives.

Lubec Channel Light - Near Lubec, ME.

Thanks for stopping by. LOTS more to come from this trip to the land of many, many lighthouses.
