Acadia National Park

Kim and I have come to Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park for different reasons. She is here for a 4 day watercolor class, and I, well I am here to just wander around and hopefully take some interesting photos.

Here is Kim waiting for her class to start.
And here is Kim with her instructor Ian Fennely.
And here is me with no plan, but in a really beautiful place.
You can’t go wrong taking a classic photo of the Arched Bridge in Somesville
A monarch butterfly waiting to travel to Mexico
Another classic photo. This one of the Bass Harbor Lighthouse.

Even at this late date the islands attractions are still VERY crowded. I had to take a break, so I headed for the much less populated west coast of Arcadia. Here I even managed to make a new friend in a fisherman named Eddie. we swapped stories while he unloaded is catch of crabs.

And that was only our first day. I can’t wait to see how our second unfolds.

  1. Your trip has looked so lovely. I’ve enjoyed watching your journey.
    I loved Bar Barbor when we went a few years ago! Are you going to try to get sunrise over Cadillac mountain?

    • I don’t think so. The line to get up there is huge. Even at this late date there are a lot of people in the park so I have tried to find the quieter places. Still I am findi ng a lot to do. Love to you and your familu. ________________________________

  2. Fantastic for you both! I’ve been waiting for you and your camera to get to Arcadia NP 🙌 A place I fully expect to enjoy someday. Keep the images coming.
