Remembered fresh tastes of summer

This one’s with basil.

Here’s how they’re grown

Stunning bridge over the Narrows

At the top of Penobscot Bay, this is the principal welcome to Downeast and Acadia. Or for those of us going the other direction, to the rest of America.

You can even go to the top, the equivalent of 40 floors, for a spectacular panorama.
