Maine Narrow Gauge Railroad - Portland

The narrow gauge railroad chugs along on a narrow two foot track.

Imagine the Polar Express lit up with Christmas lights and everyone
giving their gold tickets to the railroad attendant and waiting for their
hot chocolate!  

Step back in time and see how the most remote parts of Maine connected 
with other areas.

Any day is a good day to go down the tract and look out to Casco Bay!

The Giant Stairs on Bailey Island, Maine

The Giant Stairs down to the sea floor.
How else would a giant get up to the island without the stairs?

Craggy ole giants always make their way to the top!

The swirling sea foam at the bottom appears to make for a soft landing
but
Beware!

Alway a moment for some uuuummmmmmm time when you're near the ocean.

Thanks to Captain Henry and his wife Joanna
you too can enjoy a hike along the ocean 
and enjoy all the geology findings!

Bailey Island Views

From a distance I see penguins, but turns out it's just their cousins!

I may never leave Bailey Island
Solitude at its finest!

Find a smooth rock and have a seat for a spell!

Bailey Island Maine - A little slice of Heaven on Earth

Little Mark Island Monument
Little Mark isn't classified as a lighthouse but it does offer guidance for anyone 
on a boat or ship passing through.

A Memorial 
to all Maine Fisherman
who have devoted their lives to the sea

All Fall foliage isn't on trees but also along the coast in the brush.

At the end of the road on Bailey Island the sea goes on and on and on and....

Bailey Island ~ Lands End

Just drive to the end of the road.......
....and be mesmerized!

Halfway Rock Lighthouse
If you had a few extra dollars in your pocket you could've been lucky to purchase
Halfway Rock Lighthouse.  It recently was sold by the U.S. Government
 for a mere $283,000.00.

Perseverance!

Mackerel Cove on Bailey Island, Maine

One of the many spots along the Maine coast where you could literally sit all day
and each moment would be blissful.

The fishing cove sees boat after boat leaving and returning with their catch of the day.

Trolling through the cove.
