Pemaquid Point Lighthouse regularly draws locals and visitors alike year-round. All you need is a quick scan of the license plates in the parking lot, but one mostly finds this out when talking to others who are wandering about, soaking up the air and the sun and the openness. It is a friendly place. (Perhaps more so than when one of our ancestors washed up in the Angel Gabriel shipwreck of 1635.)
And driving the peninsula, which I have been doing since I could first drive, is part of the joy. The roads are more open and wide (not at all like the dystopian driving one must endure going down and around Boothbay's ditch-laden peninsula) and it oscillates between gentle open fields and bits of old growth pine forests.
