I know, I post too many Monhegan photos. If you’ve been there you would understand. It’s what gets us through until the next year when we head that way.
Walk, eat, talk, visit, then walk some more… That’s what we do on Monhegan Island. To just BE where it is so incredibly quiet, especially in Cathedral Woods. The air is so fresh and clear, what’s not to love?
Catch you back here tomorrow!
The Island Inn sits majestically at the top of the hill. Those clouds were stunning. Half of the sky was dotted with clouds and the other half was clear.
Mother Nature is so incredible – beauty beyond compare!

Almost there! Trying to catch up after several days of no wifi and lots of yard cleanup after hurricane Matthew, back to normal posting next week (artists, recipes, house plans), for now enjoy the images!
I took this photo with my phone, so it’s not the best in the world, but you can see what a fabulous painting this is! This painting is by James Fitzgerald, and you can see it at the Monhegan Museum when they reopen next year. If you’ve never been to Monhegan Island, it’s amazing! The museum is a must see – do not miss it! The talent is unbelievable!

There are beautiful flowers everywhere you look on Monhegan. The bees are so happy. I wish you could have seen the Farmer’s Market. Many people waiting for the bell to ring, once it rings the produce, flowers, white pumpkins, food, etc. are quickly sold out. I do mean quickly! It was fun to watch!
Back to normal posting in a few days – Catch you back here tomorrow!

We are back from a wonderful stay at the Island Inn, Monhegan, Maine. If you are looking for a wonderful inn, with fabulous food, and views to die for, this is the place for you. The people who work there become family. We all can’t wait to get back. Home away from home, if only for a few days!

Rockport, Maine. We had driven around on this day, back off the island from Monhegan – checking out Camden and Rockport. The dark skies were rolling in. Funny, it never rained, just looked like it was going to! Isn’t the light against the dark skies amazing? Mother Nature has a way, wow.
(I originally had this photo labeled as Camden, ME – thank you Linda!!)

I could ride around Maine taking photos of sunrises, sunsets, clouds and beautiful roads forever and ever. Everywhere you look there is something else that catches your eye. I just love this setting!

I like to think of this as THE ROAD HOME… although it was actually on the way to the airport, never a happy day. Maine is so beautiful, it’s hard to leave. But, we appreciate our time there SO much!

A September sunrise in Waldoboro, Maine. Quite the beauty, isn’t it? There was this bright white streak that went across the sky, it was amazing! One of those, where it catches your eye through the window and you grab your camera and run in your PJ’s before its gone!

Stunning! I have taken so many photographs over the past few years of this very spot. In sun, light, shadow, but this year I was able to add fog to the list. I truly enjoyed those few foggy days. It kept things cooler, which I wanted more than anything! For those of you familiar with Monhegan, this is the view as you walk from the Lupine Gallery back towards the Island Inn – this is on your right – Uncle Henry’s, an iconic cottage that sits majestically on that hill between the wharf and the Island Inn.
It was really nice to catch up with friends – can’t wait until next year!

I took this photo of the lighthouse on Monhegan back in 2014. There is nothing that can get me out of bed faster than a sunrise of this magnitude! Everything about it was stunning. The light spilled across to Manana (Island) and into the water. The island was floating in this beautiful pinkish orange. I feel so blessed to have witnessed this!
Catch you back here tomorrow!
I couldn’t pass by this sunflower without taking a photo – this flower comes complete with a bee. Good timing, thanks Bee!
Photo from the archives… Happy Sunday – Catch you back here tomorrow!
Beware near the St. Clair River in Michigan – Old Fisherman Crossing, hee hee. Oh how I would like to be here right now with a good book! I love that river!

A sunset photo, taken from the Island Inn porch. These sunsets mesmerize me! This was taken looking towards Manana Island (the wharf has a light).
The color, THOSE SWIRLS OF CLOUDS, the dramatic coastline – wow, Wow, WOW!
I thought this peaceful photo was a good one for 9/11 – thinking of all those who were lost or lost loved ones, friends or acquaintances…

The magnetic pull of Monhegan, Maine. A panoramic from the hill near the Monhegan Museum & Lighthouse. What a view – it’s as if you can see forever! Of course this image is better larger (can click to enlarge), but you get an idea! There is a bench overlooking the cemetery, which is such a peaceful place to sit and just take it all in. Most of us would like nothing better than to never leave, however, that isn’t an option. So absorb it with every ounce of your being while you’re there! If you haven’t been – definitely add it to your bucket list!
Catch you back here tomorrow!
