Scarborough Marsh – Scarborough, ME
This was Sunday’s walk. It’s looking a heck of a lot more marshy than during last year’s dry summer. We’ll have to see how that works out this year.

Donnell Pond – Franklin, ME
Only a few photos from the sunny day, because of my lord the black flies! I am so glad they don’t live on the coast.

Donnell Pond Stars – Franklin, ME
One of the joys of being that far out of town is the lack of light pollution. I finally had a chance to try my starry skies setting on my camera. I forgot my tripod (well, BF’s tripod), so the best shots were definitely the ones I had laying on the deck

Schoodic Peninsula, Acadia National Park – Winter Harbor, ME
In an effort to avoid the black flies once the sun came out, we headed over to Schoodic, on the coast, and did baby’s first hike on the Anvil Trail. (Which had a bit more of a slope than what C had found online, but baby M had a grand old time in her

Donnell Pond – Franklin, ME
It poured on our way up last Sunday to Ellsworth, and the next day started rainy. Not a bad day to spend hanging out at camp. It even dried out a bit late in the afternoon so I could snap some pictures before the black flies came back out.

Two Lights State Park – Cape Elizabeth, ME
I’m quite a bit behind posting, as my sister, BIL and my six-month-old niece have been in Maine for the past week and a few days. This was baby’s first trip to the Atlantic Ocean, last Saturday (the 13th). It was also the first time I remember seeing truly wild columbine.

Cape Cod, MA
Also known as the great test for my new rain coat. Or, yet another time we went to Cape Cod with Weather! It did rain, but it was a lovely trip. The above pictures are over two days. We made it all the way out to P-town, and then had

Microclimate cracks me up. Good thing I got to see blooming trout lilies last week…

Hamilton House – South Berwick, ME
This is the earliest we’ve ever stopped by Hamilton House, and I was delighted to find that there are blue squill and grape hyacinth (my two favorite Spring garden flowers) naturalized down the slopes toward the Salmon River. I cannot tell you how happy it made me to see all that blue. The

Flowers around Kittery, Maine and Portsmouth, New Hampshire
We’re finally past mud season. Not that things are perfect yet, but there are blooms! Pretty much everywhere. (Most of the above came from the overflow parking lot at the Kittery Outlets, which was not where I was expecting to have a nice little wildflower walk.)
