Coastal panoramic Maine.
This is by Pemaquid Point Lighthouse. Maine has many picturesque lighthouses but my wife and I were limited to five day stay because trying to find a long favorable weather window is hard enough to get and Maine is a big enough state that to catch all the scenic sights would require more days and a lot of road miles and burning gas. Getting to this spot required an hour and half drive along local roads from the interstate and along the way I made a couple of wrong turns going down narrow local roads and the houses went from very nice to really run down places. I was tempted to stop along the road to document some examples of rural poverty but in this state there are more gun stores than McDonalds. Also considering some of the stories we had in the news where people have pulled into the wrong driveway and gotten blown away by trigger happy idiots I wasn't about to take the chance. My paranoia was further fueled when I passed one house and this guy had like a 10 by 15 foot wooden sign on his front yard that said in like three foot letters F**K BIDEN in bold caps and the first thought that came into my mind was good God don't let the car break down here. But I found the main road again and this was a very beautiful coastal spot and I would recommend this as a stop to anyone that comes to this part of the world.
