Doubling Point Light is a lighthouse on the Kennebec River in Arrowsic, Maine. It was established in 1898, fifteen years after the founding of the Bath Iron Works, a major shipbuilder, 1.5 miles (2.4 km) upriver.

The lighthouse was part of a major upgrade of the river's lighthouses, and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places as Doubling Point Light Station on January 21, 1988. It remains an active aid to navigation.

The Doubling Point Light is located on the lower Kennebec River, at a point where the normally south-flowing river makes a sharp turn to the east, followed by a turn back to the south.

The light station includes a tower, keeper's house, shed, and oil house. The tower is an octagonal wood frame structure, finished in wooden shingles, with an iron walkway around the lantern chamber. It is accessed via a three-span footbridge.

Near the tower is the keeper's house, an L-shaped 1-1/2 story wood frame structure with hip-roofed porches. Also nearby are the gable-roofed tool shed, built in 1898, and the small brick oil house, added in 1906.

The city of Bath, located upriver from this point, had been a major shipbuilding port for much of the 19th century, and the river was a major transportation artery all the way to Augusta.

In 1892 the river below Bath was identified by the United States Lighthouse Board as needing improved navigational aids, and a series of improvements were authorized. Funding was made available by Congress in 1895, and Doubling Point Light was built in 1898, along with the keeper's house and shed.

Coming by this popular destination in Franconia Notch, NH about two weeks ago was good timing. It was close to peak foliage colors, and I was blown away by the view. It's a bit of a hike, maybe 30-45 min but well worth it.

Interestingly, I feel like every year I'm either a little too early or a little too late for the peak foliage colors. However, this is the closest I've gotten to the peak.

Happy Friday all!

My daughter Natasha has her birthday a week before mine. We are both winter babies, and not only mother/daughter but kindred spirits. Natasha is an outstanding artist. My birthday was today and she gave me a beautiful painting of a fox which now hangs in front of me. She is finishing school school to become an art teacher. And she is also a wonderful mother to her own daughter. I am so very proud of her. <3
