Visits with my cousin have been few and far between during out adult lives, so when a chance to get together in Portland presented itself I suggested we meet at the Portland Head Light. She hadn’t been there before, and I knew our GPS devices would get us both to the same place for a visit with a view. I was a little disappointed that my second chance to take pictures there was also a cloudy day. But it was much earlier in the day and the sky was brighter. Plus I had totally missed the cliff walk there, so I was able to take pictures from a different angle than the last time. It was a last minute, unexpected visit, which are often the best ones. Also unexpected was this first picture. The short guy ordering a lobster roll at the window I’m? Well, he looks exactly like my husband Charley, whom I lost almost exactly 5 years ago. He might even look more like Charley than Charley did. Unexpected is an understatement. But it did warm my heart to see him there…
Wow, your photos look absolutely amazing and that’s one beautiful lighthouse – it’s one of my favourites

Thank you so much. As a single senior woman it took a leap of faith for me to set off for my first, but not last, ‘snowbird’ summer. I wanted to see the rocky coast of Maine and it was even more amazing than I thought. Eventually I’ll be back to the ‘nature coast’ of Florida, but there will be more adventures next year. Thanks for the nice feedback.
