Here, shortly after sundown, we’re at Blue Hill’s Conary Cove on Saturday (December 19). The only light is the darkening blue-gray of the in-coming night.

The tide is at a stilled ebb, allowing the iconic red boathouse there to duplicate itself, as it often does in the daytime. Within about 10 minutes, the boathouse has disappeared into the night.

I’ve been unable to find a reliable history of this boathouse. However, I have read a report describing it in the 1950s as being painted white or light gray. Perhaps one of you can give me a citation to a history of the boathouse. (Brooklin, Maine)
