OOPS......I was thinking Cape Neddick Light.... I've been to both. I don't remember a restaurant next to the Portland light. Sorry.

Oh, I liked the one by Two Lights. The Lobsta Shack. Great photo op there. Two light houses in the same view.

Is it still cheap there. When I was there ( Boston up) about 10 years ago, my wife and I ate lobster 3 meals a day. It was like $5 for a meal or lobster roll, in a lot of places. Really cheap in bar harbor. Then we went to Nova Scotia and ate scallops like mad. Cheap cheap cheap... Best trip we have ever been on. Ready to go back.

This is a famous lighthouse which had it's beginning with George Washington and also had the poet Longfellow visit it and it was believed he wrote his famous poem on Lighthouses from this location.
Also on Christmas eve 1886 the Annie Maguire crashed and the crew was rescued by the lighthouse keeper and his family. No lives were lost.

Beautiful photo. By the way, it is the Portland Head Light. A "head" is a rocky promontory. The lighthouse sits on the Portland Head. At the far end of the state is the West Quoddy Head Lighthouse, for example. (and to the East is the East Quoddy Head Lighthouse - both are also spectacular).

Thank you, I learned something. I love learning, now just to be able to remember that in a couple of years when I get back up there. But thank you. I do want to film West and East Quoddy Head Lighthouses.
