This is a little church that sits in a curve on highway 80 going towards the Blue Ridge Parkway. I always take pictures of this church in the fall time with all the fall colors but this is the first time I've taken a picture in the spring.
The lighthouse at Cape Elizabeth is one of the most photographed light houses in Maine. I use the wide-angle lens here in the shot.
Following the northern route of Vermont Route 100 , I passed this lovely bridge with all of the fall colors and had to stop and take a photo.

All good. Pool was a bit to cool to swim in. Mgr explained the reason and was working on that. Otherwise no complaints, could use some fresh fruit with bkfst bar but was sufficient. A good stay all around. Room was large and immaculate.

I had an excellent time at Long Cove. The cabin I stayed in was very clean and smelled fresh upon arrival. The view of the lake from my porch was spectacular.
