Today’s post shows changes to our view of the summer residence on Harbor Island, the house with the gothic upper window.
The above image shows the house enjoying the warmth of Saturday’s sunshine. Its windows are shuttered closed, indicating that its season is over. Seemingly standing guard in Naskeag Harbor is the Fishing Vessel “Tarrfish.” It apparently had recently hauled up some of its traps for storage, indicating that its lobster season is almost over.
Below, you’ll see that house in early October, hunkered down in a periodic fog. Its windows were unprotected, indicating that it was still operational then. At that time, Fishing Vessel “Dear Abbie:” and a skiff seemingly were standing guard, unconcerned about the fog.
Change is our one constant. (Images taken in Brooklin, Maine, on October 4 [fog] and 26, 2024.)
