Monday - Pemaquid Lighthouse, ME

Double click on the pictures to enlarge them.
Monday we drove Bristol ME to Pemaquid Island, the Lighthouse. We departed Topsham at 10 am and the trip was one and a half hours. We may have made a wrong turn or two. The first thing to do was get lunch. What a sight we found.

The fort to protect from the indians worked until they refused to sell the Indians gun powder. The Indians burned the village to the ground.
