  • It was a gorgeous day, 83 degrees F, a deep blue sky scattered with puffy cartoon clouds. We got there as high tide was beginning to ebb. Back Beach is a great place for stones - nicely weathered, rounded cobbles of granite and basalt. It is popular, but not over-populated. There were two rambunctious families with water guns and one blonde sunbather in a bikini who looked as if she had dropped in from some other universe entirely. My daughter tried out a wetsuit, my husband snorkeled, my teenage son sulked and refused to swim, and I walked the tideline picking up stones and feathers and pine cones.   Granite, schist, and basalt beach stones, pine cone (Pinus strobus), feather, and spruce cone (Picea sp.)

  • Hidden among deep piles of wrack along the high tide line I found a decomposing sea bird. There wasn't enough left to identify it, but perhaps someday I'll learn enough to recognize these feathers.

  • In the winter I beachcomb alone, but in the summer, it's a family affair. Lamoine Beach didn't have enough sand to make my daughter happy, nor enough waves and climbing rocks to please my son. Beachcombing wasn't too bad, but I didn't have long there.<br />
