After a week that featured rain, fog and temperatures in the 40′s, we woke up this morning to blue skies and bright sunshine. Soon after waking up, I drove down the peninsula to West Point. Fog was lifting and temperatures were warming.
The area featured in the photo is known as The Branch which is off Alliquippa Road. It is a favorite bird watching spot for Sharon and I. Lobster boats are usually moored here, but this morning, only a few where idle as the rest where out to sea.
Off the beaten path, the area is an excellent place to read a book, have a picnic lunch or just to sit back and take in the spectacular view.
Enjoy our Skywatch Friday entry.


I could spend some time there, just sitting.
That is what I like to do when I go there.
Thanks for stopping by!
Looks like a very relaxing and nice cove to visit. I love the whole scene. Happy eyes.
Thank you Shey!
Beautiful, serene scene. Maine is one of only 3 states east of the Mississippi that I haven’t been to. I hope to visit there someday.
I hope you can visit someday too. Just don’t come in the winter!
Thanks for stopping by!
Put me out there and I would stay all day. Nothing better than sitting beside the water and watching the boats. Unless your on the boat!!! What a beautiful quiet looking place. I have always wanted to visit Maine. Maybe someday! Thanks for sharing and have a great day!
Beautiful photo of the local skies to be sharing with Sky Watch Friday fans. You do post some wonderful scenes on your blog space, thank you for brightening our day.
I love the shimmery trees in the reflection! This is gorgeous enough to be a postcard!
