Some Views and Faces of Belfast, Maine

 Hi everyone. Happy Friday to you.

I'm here today with a post for Nicole's Friday Face Off and also for Gillena's Friday Lunch Break.

Some of you might have read back in my T Day post (this past Tuesday) that described how last week I took a more-or-less spontaneous but fun roadtrip up to Belfast, Maine. My husband had business there, and he invited me along for the ride. That ride turned into an overnight visit and a little bit of sightseeing.

We were having gorgeous weather too, so that made the trip even better.

Today let me share some views of Belfast, Maine. Let me start off with some "faces".


A clock face
and whale face


My dog Mr. Pete looking at something out of the car window


The face of a building that was painted in an interesting way


And this wall was being refaced


And here's some little faces in this anniversary poster that really stood out on this brick wall.


And here's a few other photos of Belfast to share. These don't really have faces, but I  thought you might enjoy them. I took these in the early evening while out walking in town along this fantastic rail trail that was there.






And I'm guessing this next building was the old train station along the trail.


I love this tug, but if you notice on the right hand side of the photo there are 2 bridges. The upper one is the main road-Route 1. The lower one is the old road and now part of the rail trail.


That's all for me today. I hope you have a fantastic start to your weekend.

  7. I absolutely LOVE your take on faces. I especially love the play on the word Face. Just adorable.

    What a lovely town. Really charming. The building with the flag on the front is truly on its last leg. Ah, to live on a house boat! Great photos from your walk, dear.

  15. Belfast, Maine is a storybook town ... how beautiful and quaint. That is a walk I would love to take. Here in the Midwest we don't hear much about Right Whales, but I would hope that everyone who has the opportunity will help the Right Whale ... we can't afford to lose any of our natural treasures. Thank you for the visit, Erika ... it was a beautiful site.
