Last weekend when it was Summer in September I went paddling with my writing partner, Sandy, and our new friend FitMaine. (If you have not checked her out, you need to!) Check out her website here and follow her on social media if you want to fill your newsfeeds with things that will make you smile!
For this post I am not including directions and all the details I usually do... I promised Sandy and our publisher that I wouldn't post all the information about all the destinations that are in our book... and this is one of those trips! If you want that info, it is trip #25 in our book!
*This was my first time paddling here. Sandy and I worked together on
the book and have both done about 2/3 of the trips... She had done the write up for Mere Point and I remember reading it and wanting to paddle here...I must say this was a trip that reaffirms, even for me, that our book has AMAZING places to explore. I know...shameless self promotion, but in all seriousness... our book provides FIFTY FOUR places to paddle that are so close to Portland... they are all beautiful places.
If you haven't checked out our book yet, please do so!

Enjoy the photos!
The water was sooo calm! Apparently this is not always the case so, be careful!
Some friendly fishermen!
Why is it that photos of empty floating boats are so peaceful?
So. Many. Cormorants!
My paddling partners, Sandy (in yellow) and Shannon!
A little black and white photo...
I think this was Crow Island...
Love the colors and textures of the seaweed...
This is not a live horseshoe crab... just it's skeleton... I took it back to the marine biology teacher at my school for her students to study!
It was a beautiful experience!
Boating is beautiful experience and cannot be compared with any other. I love boating and most of the holidays that I plan are riverside.
