We sailed to Camden, Maine, what a lovely, beautiful little town. We stayed on a morring bouy in the harbor sinxce they were packed. Great first class marina. We had to have the boat hauled out to have a leaky prop shaft seal repaired. Then we got to enjoy Camden. A beautiful little town with all the basics, a latte in the morning with fresh croissants, grocery store, wine store, ice cream cone (see Gary below enjoyed his ice cream cone)and a great restaurant for dinner.
Plus a little hiking, below is a picture of the view from Mount Battie the highest mountain on the US Atlantic Coast
Below is what the plaque on Mount Battie commemorating the writing of the poem "Renascence" by Edna St Vincent Millay:
ALL I could see from where I stood | |
Was three long mountains and a wood | |
I turned and looked the other way, | |
And saw three islands in a bay. | |
So with my eyes I traced the line | |
Of the horizon, thin and fine, | |
Straight around till I was come | |
Back to where I’d started from; | |
And all I saw from where I stood | |
Was three long mountains and a wood. | | | | | | |
