Four minutes before...

We watched the sunset on the Schoodic Peninsula, Birch, Harbor, Maine,  a part of Acadia National Park this evening. It was so beautiful, brisk with the just sound of ocean surrounding us. As the sun dipped from view, faint clapping was heard from folks watching. Many of the license plates in the parking lot where on cars from landlocked states. I can only imagine the awe of seeing the ocean  for the first time as an adult. Something like what I felt when I saw the Grand Canyon or the Rocky Mountains for the first time. Unforgettable.

We spent the day in Acadia on the Schoodic Peninsula and in the sweet little town of Winter Harbor. Many trees were beginning to show brilliant color as we drove the hour and 15 minutes dow Route 1 to Acadia, it was a gorgeous autumn day. The blueberry barren, now picked and dormant until next spring are turning a dark burnt orange, it's just such a colorful time of the year.

For the Record,
This day came in with clouds and sun, becoming sunnier as the day went on.

All hands happy.
