Nubble Light
(Via gardenauthor)
No doubt about it... fall in New England is spectacular, with glorious foliage, ripening fruits, harvest moons and clear, crisp weather. Not to be overlooked, in the midst of this abundant beauty, is the eastern seacoast in autumn. The cloudless blue skies and refreshing cool temperatures of this past weekend, provided the perfect backdrop for a coastal excursion. Above, we see the Cape Neddick Lighthouse of York Beach, Maine. Below, is a long-view of what is also known as Nubble Light, dating back to 1879.

For a complete history of this cast iron and brick lighthouse, I heartily recommend visiting the Nubble Light website, under the "Southern Maine Lighthouses" umbrella. You'll find lots of information and more photos of Nubble... sunsets, Christmas lights and more!
Is he "from here, or away?" I'm guessing, just by his self-assured attitude, this is no tourist... probably one of the "locals" out for a little exercise before lunch. And by the steely stare, I'd say that lunch is high on his Sunday to-do list!
This fall, make it a point to enjoy all the beauty that New England has to offer... from mountain, to forest, to sea.
