One of those Lighthouses in Maine you really need to look for while driving through Maine.
The small village of Prospect Harbor developed a substantial fishing fleet in the nineteenth century. The first lighthouse to mark the east side of the harbor entrance was built in 1850. The light was deactivated between 1859 and 1870, because "the harbor is not used as a harbor of refuge, and the village near which it is situated has only a small coasting trade." Evidently, the use of the harbor increased, as in 1870 the Lighthouse Board announced that the light was reactivated on May 15 "to serve as a guide to the harbor of refuge which it marks."
The original granite lighthouse attached to the keeper's house was replaced in 1891 by the present 38-foot wood lighthouse with a fifth order Fresnel lens, and a new 1 1/2 story farmhouse-style keeper's house. The house and tower were at first attached by a covered passageway, but the passageway was later removed. A stone oil house was added in 1905, and for a time the station had an active fog bell.
The light was automated in 1934, but a keeper (John Workman) remained at the station until 1953. In 1951 the Fresnel lens was replaced.
The light remains an active aid to navigation, while the surrounding grounds and buildings belong to the U.S. Navy; the lighthouse is on the grounds of a Navy installation.

When we arrived at the strawberry farm, they had already picked all the ripe ones. Those which were left should be ready for the next day's harvest, with various shades of red/dark pink, all from the bottom up.
Altogether a very nice place, wet with water drops from the early morning rain, very green and fresh with crisp cool air, unpolluted by exhaust fume and whatnot. The staff of the farm was extraordinary, surprisingly friendly and helpful.

The prospector stood at the ridge, scanning the barren expanse of the planet’s surface. The horizon was quiet, but too close for comfort—just a few hundred klicks east lay the territory claimed by another company. He glanced back at the droid, old but efficient, burrowing into the ground and retrieving core samples. He didn’t know what they were looking for exactly—just that the payout was worth the risk. Each sample pulled from the depths might hold something valuable... or nothing at all. Either way, he had to stay ahead of the competition, and time wasn’t on his side.

This speeder was a lot of fun to make. Really difficult to get all the details as close as I wanted. Not quite there, but I'm happy with the result.

The row of six Arts and Crafts style stucco houses – 935 - 943 Prospect Place – was built in the early 1920s. The developer and builder of the row was Thomas H. Fraser. Architect A. White Pierce was known for his work on suburban residential architecture, including many houses in Prospect Park South and Ditmas Park. The houses were designed with touches like steeply pitched gables, dormers, arched openings and a sloped slate roof that unifies the row.
The cottages on Prospect Place consist of two outside houses that are a bit larger than the center ones and set closer to the street. The other four are set back. The interior houses share chimneys, while three arched openings in the group access the garages in back.
Swans, ducks, geese, American coots often hibernate in New York City.
