October 22, 2023 – Pemaquid Point Lighthouse – Maine

Today Wilma, Gus, and I Adventured to Pemaquid Point Lighthouse in Bristol, Maine.  The Pemaquid Point Lighthouse Park is located at Pemaquid Neck. It was built in 1827 but later rebuilt in 1935, reportedly due to poor construction.  The official Park is open from May through October and includes:  an art gallery, fisherman’s museum, an art gallery, and a learning center.

We had a lovely Adventure to the Pemaquid Point Lighthouse on a rainy autumn day. I had blogged about this Lighthouse over four years ago, so thought it would be a good time to capture it again. Upon arrival we found the booth open and a cost to enter. We paid our dues, heard some information about the location, and off we went. We spent a little over an hour exploring the property. The waves were crashing in and just spectacular, roaring and grand! The Lighthouse was unique, and lovely in its own way, even while framed by a dark grey sky. Both Wilma and Gus enjoyed wandering around, Gus often thinking it was time to play, energized for the day at hand! I especially loved watching the crashing sea and searching for color on this grey day. So glad we decided to check out the Pemaquid Lighthouse again today (Rating: 4).

Weekly Video/Photo

If you regularly follow my blog, and the weekly/video photo I would recommend skipping on to paragraph three, specific to this week’s video/photo.  I have decided to add a weekly video/photo section to my blog.  This blog will display a video or photo, usually highlighting an Adventure, while I might also sneak in some that are humorous, adorable, or just other fun dog moments.

So if you have followed my blog from the beginning you will know that I adopted Shadow as a puppy, and about a year later adopted Buster as a puppy.  We had many wonderful years together before experiencing the devastating loss of Buster at just seven.  It took a long time for our hearts to heal, but almost a year later we welcomed little Wilma into our world.

Today’s feature is a photograph of Shadow and Wilma at the Pemaquid Point Lighthouse, taken last March, in Bristol, Maine.  This is definitely one of my favorite lighthouse poses of Shadow and Wilma, their ears blowing adorably in the wind.  We were quite pleased to enjoy this gorgeous location in the off-season, few other visitors in sight.  You can read more about our visit to the Pemaquid Point Lighthouse by typing it in the search box.  It is also located under the Maine tab, as well as the Lighthouse tab.
