If you look closely you can see cricket and we had a stern anchor and a bow anchor!! First time for that too. When we went to pull up anchor Ben was ready to get in the kayak and pull up a 35 pound anchor... silly if you ask me... he will tip... now when do I keep my mouth shut and when do I say, "why not use the halyard to hoist it up?" that is a rope that is attached to the top of the mast and connects to a winch...easy for a girl... I have to think physics not muscle or finesse. well I did just say as he was going fot the kayak. I'll hook up the halyard to the anchor. He said, "What a great idea, how did you think of that?" isnt he the sweetest guy. I gave him the same answer i gave you... being a girl with tiny muscles it has to be done by physics.
This small island still has active lobsterers.
this picture is in the wrong place... this is from monhegan...
Here on Damariscove is a pond... yes a fresh water pond! weird! we did touch the water so we could taste it, cuz who would believe that there is fresh water so close to the sea water! look at the picture!! it is maybe 20 feet apart. This is hte reason they claim to be the first settlers cuz they had fresh water readily available for all and the livestock.
