Saltwater Farms

We left Moody Beach on Monday, June 18th, and headed to Saltwater Farms Campground in Thomaston, Maine.  We drove through Bath, Maine,  where Bath Iron Works is located.


Bath Iron Works builds navy ships.



Saltwater Farms is located right outside of Thomaston down a long dusty driveway…


We  were given site #15 which had a nice view of the harbor.

Surprisingly, even though it seemed like we were in the middle of nowhere, the internet and cell phone coverage was great.

On Tuesday, we decided to drive to the nearest Walgreens which was in Belfast, Maine, to get Chuck’s prescriptions refilled before going into Canada.  While in Belfast, we had lunch at Weathervane Seafoods on the docks at Belfast.


On the way back to the campground, we took this picture of the beautiful Maine coastline.

On Wednesday, we decided to check out the walking trail down to the harbor.

We found a plank that went down to the harbor.


There were some blackberries and daisies in bloom along the path.  Chuck still needs to work on his picture taking skills:


Maybe he was focusing on the grass.  His picture of the daisies was much better:

After our short hike, we sat on the swing…

…and watched the boats go by.


From where we sat you could see several farms across the harbor.  Can you see the barn?


How about now?



(I love zooming!)

I asked Chuck to take a picture of us on the swing.  (He's still working on his photography skills.)  :)


OK..now take a picture of our faces.



There was not a lot to do at Saltwater Farms; but that was o.k.  Because of the good internet connection, I got caught up on some work and on the blog.  And in the evenings, we would just sit outside and enjoy the view.
