Beautiful pink granite rocks make up entire islands in Maine and a good part of the shoreline, especially around Mt. Desert Island.
On a recent walk around tiny Rams Island, just off of Gotts Island, we discovered a few things that have found shelter in the cracks between the granite.
The battered remains of shellfish.
And very hardy vegetation.
In the middle of winter, it’s hard to imagine what the future will bring in a relatively short time.
Having four seasons is like moving to an entirely new place every few months.

Fragile windows frame the frigid beauty of Maine’s winter.
Even while taking a shower.
The prettiest mornings in Maine often involve mist, especially along the coast.
If you can’t be in Maine, here’s a way to see what it’s like to wake to a sunrise with the sound of a lobster boat in the background.
The sky often merges into the water, and you can’t tell where one stops and the other begins.
Within the gorgeous gardens on Maine’s garden tours, the architecture, art, history, and people, can amaze as well.

Fantastic fish swim on the boathouse of the Patti & Bruce Westphal’s Garden on Rockport Harbor. The home was filled with a very amusing folk art collection that expanded into the garden.
Andre the Seal loved visiting this lobsterman’s house. Fish (the edible variety) were of interest to him as well.
Nancy & Ben Allen’s lovely renovated Victorian home and overflowing perennial garden in Lincolnville.
The fences at the Berwick Hill in Rockport are as classic as the gardens.
The pool at Berwick Hill surrounded by luscious flora at the home of Dyke Messler & Rickey Celentano.
