The day started out very foggy but had burned off by the time we got into the park.
Can't tell where the water ends and the sky begins |
The ecosystems along the edge of lakes, ponds and streams is very fragile and easily destroyed so many areas have raised walkways in place to protect them.
Viewing the Jordan Pond House from the other end of the pond offers a different perspective.
Can you imagine being the first person to find this spot?
One of my favorite places along this path is tucked away in a little cove not far from the beginning, if you go counter clockwise. Since the path is constructed of gravel, there is a lot of crunching underfoot, but this section isn't gravel, so it's very quiet.
Today we spotted a really green frog, like a Kermit green frog and a good sized fish.
Of course, we ended our walk with a visit to the Jordan Pond House for our favorite treat. Today was the first time either of us remember the umbrellas being open.
Umbrellas open for business |
Popover, tea, butter and homemade strawberry jam |
They even allow well behaved dogs.
A nice, quiet boxer. |
I will sit here patiently and wait for you to drop some of your popover. |
Looking back...2008
Thuya Gardens, Northeast Harbor
We stayed at the Llangolan Inn this time because there was no vacancy at Edgewater and found a nice beach down the road to watch the sunset.

Thanks for stopping by...
