Lubec, Maine


 

Lubec ME, a tourist, fishing and border town is the Eastern-most town 
in the United States where the sun's first rays shine on U.S. soil.
 I arrived here on July 23rd, the day of a full moon.
As the sun sets, the rising full moon appears.



The bridge crosses to Campobello Island in Canada, the site of the Roosevelt Campobello International Park, President and Eleanor Roosevelt's Summer home. T
here is no other bridge to mainland Canada and this one remains closed due to COVID-19.
 

Stranded Canadians are allowed to cross for food, essentials, and presumably Amazon deliveries.



 
  




Then to complete the celestial triple I awakened 
early to photograph the sunrise.

  1. That's a fabulous photo. I especially liked hearing about your boon docking experience on the dock with the fisher-persons' trucks and such. I hope I can be that brave when I'm out on the open road. I'm always paranoid about cops and guards and thieves in the night.

    1. Thanks, Rich. As I recall one of your summah jobs was to be a cop at Old Orchard Beach. I even have a photo of you in uniform. My guess is cops these day have more to worry about than seeing an obviously fine-looking vehicle, and not an Electric Acid CoolAid Bus, parked, lights out, and silently not disturbing anyone than in those earlier days before they heard the Chief’s talk on being caretakers of the peace and not in it to raise fear in otherwise innocent citizens. Worry less; you’ll enjoy it more.

Keep at it; you will learn to worry less; and, you’ll enjoy it more.
