Marshall Point Light’s Winter Splendor
Below are views of Marshall Point Lighthouse and the wharves of Port Clyde in the wake of the great “Blizzard of 2010” on December 26-27.
A new blanket of snow covered the Maine coast, and though the sun was shining bright after the storm’s departure, winds continued to gust around to 35-knots, lifting snow about the air in fitful fashion and sending daytime wind chills plummeting to single digits.
In the process, the conditions created a scene of wintertime splendor to behold around lighthouses like Marshall Point, even if warm thoughts of lingering in the shadow of the tower were quickly carried away on the shoulders of a frosty wind.

BOB, I’m glad you get around like you do and share the wonders of your travels with the rest of us. Sent this particular one to a friend of mine in Colorado who has a summer place on the Glenmere Road.
As always, THANK YOU !

I can’t believe that I have been to these places during the summer and how beautiful they are in winter too. I know that I have to go back to Maine and do the rest of the lighthouses from Bar Harbor to Canada. Bob and Marie you are so lucky to live in Maine all year.
