1 July 2021 Boothbay Harbor
It been 17 years since we were in Boothbay Harbor getting married. Lots of memories came back as we drove through the town and through the Spruce Point Inn. It was a Thursday back in 2004 and it was a Thursday this time as well. We took some of the back roads and explored a bit. The skinny roads and tight turns should be good practice for driving in Europe later this fall. We had a later than normal check in time at the AirBnB so after touring we stopped at the Lobster Co-op for lunch. Leslie got a soft shell lobster and I got the hard shell variety. The Co-op dock has changed a lot over the years. New buildings and new businesses have opened up and the space is less open than it was previously. There was lots of activity to watch, a black lab, a golden with his ball that trotted down the dock and right into his boat. A little Pomeranian / Husky mix that was too cute for words. A lobster boat pulled up and started unloading lobsters at the dock. It is impossible to get any fresher than that.

Prepping for the 4th!
Low standards indeed
We saw a tiny cruise boat out in the harbor
Crowded with tables
Flukes from Tuna?
I know that there was one in here earlier...
Here they are, ready for the pot
Ready for the belly!
