It has been a lovely summer weekend and, having done chores yesterday, we decided to all head out for a drive up the coast today. We headed for Harpswell and, in particular, Orr and Bailey Islands at the far end of the peninsula. They are joined to the mainland by bridges, once of which is a beloved landmark, possibly because it is somewhat narrow and precarious.
We explored a couple of trails. A beautiful coastal path named after the “Giant’s Stairs” partway along the trail, and another named Devil’s Back. This trail had an east and west branch either side of the main road but due to the narrowness of the island at the point, either one took you down to the water side.
We stopped in Brunswick for some food on the way home and were grateful for Google Maps for steering us around the worst of the vacation traffic on the rest of the way home.
