Pemaquid Point Lighthouse

     Last Friday before heading home from the Boothbay Region, we drove up to Pemaquid Point to photograph the lighthouse there.  As hundreds of photographers before me have done, I climbed about on the rocks searching for a pool of water to get a reflection of the lighthouse.

Now if only there had just been a few white puffy clouds. Oh well . . . 

     I have visited Pemaquid Point a number of times, but the tower has always been closed. Friday it was open and visitors were allowed to go up in it. There were thirty steps in the narrow winding staircase and then you had to climb up six rungs of a ladder to get to the top.

Here's the view from the top.

It was a very cool way to end my mini vacation in Maine.
