This week my work travels took me to Lubec. I stopped at Old Farm Point to enjoy my brown bag lunch. This is a new park that recently opened and is part of the larger Cobscook Shores park system.

Maine meadow

A mown path leads you along the edges of a large meadow.

Downeast Washington County meadow

There’s something so inviting about meadows. The grass waving in the breeze. The spots of colors in the wildflowers. The butterflies and birds making their home there.

Maine Ferns

The park features a variety of landscapes along the trail; patches of ferns,

Cobscook shore trails

wooded alleys,

Maine rocky Coast

rocky beaches,

stairway to the shore

and ocean vistas. Fireweed is beginning to bloom provides a pop of color on this foggy afternoon.

picnic on the shore

My lunch spot where I spent some time working on my laptop – until the mosquitoes found me. It’s best to keep moving.

shorefront meadow

Something much larger than I bedded down in this meadow. You can just see a sliver of Pirates Cove in the distance.

A beautiful wander even on a foggy day.
