Today we decided to travel back to Boothbay Harbor from Warren Island. There are a lot of favorite places we skipped this year, but we felt we visited the ones we were most drawn to and that fit the weather pattern. We also will not go right back to Robinhood, but will visit some of the spots locally here that we have not been to yet this year. Remember that early boating season projects and commitments back home really limited our time on the boat early in the year.
The trip was about 54/45 st/nautical miles
We started out about 9:00. We are only traveling about 7 knots so our trip will take about 6 hours. The seas were calm and forecast to remain that way all day. One big reason to make the trip in one shot.
Looking at the Camden hills.

Going through the chain of islands south of Rockland known as Mussel Ridge.
Whitehead Lighthouse at the end of Mussel Ridge
I decided to take the "inside" passage that goes by Port Clyde. On the way we passed my favorite tree - it is a lone tree that has been there as long as I remember - and it's still thriving - it always gives me inspiration for another year to come - I had to check to see if my friend was still there.

And about 90 minutes later we are entering Boothbay - it never gets old.
Steak on the barbie is most delicious. And what would make a great end to such a fine meal - why an ice cream of course. This is the sunset from the boat upon our return from our dessert.
The sun has set so it is time to say .................
Good Night and May God Bless
