A Cliff Walk in Maine

This cliff walk is located in York, Maine.

There was an "enter at your own risk" sign! It has seen better days but I suppose it would be quite costly to repair.

Although overcast, it was a stunning walk.

As it went on it became treacherous, particularly with no more guardrail and a rocky terrain to prevent one from falling off!

There are some cool homes on this walk that make you feel as though you are in Europe rather than the US.

There were even a couple of cannons used as lawn ornaments. A unique choice for decor!

I found this yellow moss to be quite gorgeous!

You can't even see the ocean in that last one since it was so grey outside! It was there though. The sea was gentle that day but there was still the beautiful sound of it in the air.

I hope you enjoyed this walk. The coast of Maine is stunning and highly recommended to checkout if you have the opportunity. ~Val

Appleton Farms

Appleton Farms is close to 1000 acres of New England at its finest. Located in Ipswich and Hamilton, MA it is perfect place for happy cattle. 

The land was stunning! The farm was started back in 1636 by Samuel Appleton and it probably looks almost the same as it did back then. There are some old crumbled foundations on the property that must be centuries old. 

The land was deeded to the Trustees of Reservations in 1998 by the Appleton family and can now be enjoyed by everyone. It has been kept a working farm and even has a store for its beef, cheese and yogurt.

There were plenty of happy cows.

I don't think this guy was happy to see us!

The wildflowers were beautiful.

Birds. I hand the camera over to Jim when there are birds since I usually can't make them out in the trees!

Eventually I will invest in the camera lens attachment for better bird watching photos.

Do you see some serious camouflage in the center of the photo?

Then a red winged blackbird decided to kick the crane out of its territory!

This walk was absolutely beautiful.We only explored a small part of it. This is another one of those places that would be an amazing autumn walk!

I hope you enjoyed this nature trip with us. Thank you for stopping by! ~Val
