Howdee all,
The second Island we toured on our Cranberry Island trip
Little Cranberry Island
Islesford is a picturesque harbor town on Little Cranberry Island just southeast of Mount Desert Island, Maine, providing spectacular views of Acadia National Park. Access is provided by a local mailboat or tour boats from Northeast Harbor and Southwest Harbor. Several interesting shops, galleries and artisans reside here. The Islesford Historical Museum (operated by the National Park Service) shows ship models, tools, and photographs that reveal island life during the 19th and early 20th centuries. Admission to the museum is free. (Islesford Photos) via Acadiamagic.com
While walking around the island I found this beautiful piece of bark
What do you think? Will this take off in the jewelry world?
Men can wear Bark Bracelets too…
A few artists shops and Restaurant at the end
Pottery displayed in the window..Lichen covered shingles

Dawn, another great post from your tour of Maine. Cool looking bracelet, what a neat find. Thanks for taking me on this lovely tour. Have a great day!
ReplyDeleteI've somehow managed to find your Blog...is it fate? Kismet? Hubby and I have daydreamed about motorhoming...but will we do it? Even if not, now that he is retired, we are not sure where we will end up living, as you've stated. After the house sells, that is. Anyway, your Blog is awesome, and inspirational. :o)
ReplyDeleteLove the photos and LOVE Maine... We hope to get back up there next summer.
ReplyDeleteHave fun & Travel safe
