Maine Scenes, No. 9, Baxter, Water Highlights

Maine has many creeks and lakes. Here's a view of a creek and a lake in Baxter State Park of North Central Maine. These pictures from yesteryears are calling me back there. The call of the wild.

Tim Rice said...: Hi, cergie. I, too, find a walk in the mountains refreshing and being with a friend or friends can be so good, too.

Thanks, rubysoho. I'm glad it inspires you. It inspires me, too. Hope you are doing well.

Thanks, samrina. Glad you enjoyed it.

Hi, trailady. That is neat lake with those rock islands. Awe inspiring.

Hi, sage. I bet, too, you would enjoy it. Maybe you should just do it sometime.

Hi, ginnie. Aw, you're making the call that much stronger. ;) Maybe I can get it in next year.

Thanks, chloe. It's sticky, humid here in Southeastern Pennsylvania, too.

Hi, minka. That's interesting. Gives me a little better picture of Iceland. Bet it's beautiful; but I would miss those trees.; 6/23/2006 03:02:00 PM

Thanks, merili. Your comments are an honor. Glad you enjoyed my photos.

Hi, cergie. That is just fine. :)
