Day 988-Keys to Canada-Maine Pt1


Maggie and Bill have found a piece of heaven on the coast of Maine. 


Marshall Point Light Station is a lighthouse at the entrance of Port Clyde Harbor in Port Clyde, Maine. The light station was established in 1832.

The lighthouse's unique raised wooden walkway is globally recognized as the spot where the Forest Gump character concluded his cross-country run in the 1994 film.

Built in 1817, the Ridge Church (historically known as the Second Baptist Church of St. George) in Martinsville, Maine, is a historic landmark. Originating as a branch of the First Baptist Church, the church has served as a beloved rural icon, famously captured in paintings by the renowned artist Andrew Wyeth




Authorized by President John Quincy Adams in 1825, Owls Head Light was built to guide vessels into the busy, lime-trading waters of Rockland Harbor in Penobscot Bay. Though just 30 feet tall, its strategic position atop an 80-foot bluff elevates the light to 100 feet above sea level



Larry the Lobster: A Marvel in Woolwich, Maine

Sitting atop the Taste of Maine Restaurant in Woolwich, Maine, Larry the Lobster stands tall, proudly claiming the title of the World’s Largest Inflatable Lobster. Crafted with care & creativity, Larry is truly one of a kind.

At 12 feet, Larry towers over the restaurant, catching the eyes of passersby and diners alike.



St. George's Episcopal Chapel in the St. George/Long Cove area of Maine was built in 1901. It was historically established to serve the English granite workers who had immigrated to work in the local quarries, in an area once known locally as "Englishtown"
