Light house at Point Clyde from where we took the ferry to Monhegan Island.
Along the way, the ferry captain slowed down so we could see Harbor Seals sunning themselves.
View from the hill on which the Monhegan Lighthouse stands, looking down at the harbor, Mañana Island behind the harbor. The large building is the Monheban Inn. We had lunch there. Delicious fish tacos, spinach salad and portabello mushroom "burger".
The Monhegan Lighthouse.
We hiked across the island (which is one square mile, but has 12 miles of trails) to the cliffs on the eastern side. Here's the view. Pretty spectacular.
On the cliffs, we had a visitor - this gull who plucked up some grass and seemed to want to trade it for a bite of granola bar.
Several places on the island had do-it-yourself "bulletin boards" like this, announcing events. It is useful to know that one can find a meditation group, a yoga class, ultimate Frisbee game, inter-denomination worship, and chili contest.
Leaving Monhegan, this is the entrance to the harbor.
And Monhegan fades into the foggy distance.
A good day.
Peace.

Beautiful pictures. Thanks for sharing.
