Maine 5...

It has already been a month since our family trip to Maine and I'm still reminiscing...I did take many, many photos during a ferry trip from Southwest Harbor on Mount Desert to Islesford...The ferry leaves every two hours from Southwest Harbor Upper Town Dock.

Many of the pictures I took were of the dock at Islesford...of all the colors of the lichen and barnacles and weathered wood...

On the ferry ride back to Southwest Harbor I started noticing the names of many of the working fishing and lobstering boats...
