Here are two moods of September in everchanging Naskeag Harbor. This first is a familiar sight on a gray day, a scene that makes it easier to think the serious thoughts about life here compared to elsewhere. That’s the summer house on Harbor Island looking at the Fishing Vessel “Dear Abbie:”
The second, below, is another familiar sight, but on a sunny day that makes it easy to think the playful thoughts that cleanse the mind. That’s “The Point” or “Naskeag Point” at the end of the partial (gravelly) “sand bar” or “The Bar” that always points to something you want to see:
