Parks & Scenic Locations
-
Ireland Park (Arrival)- Toronto, ON
Tucked away at the base of Bathurst Street in Toronto, in the shadows of the imposing Canada Malting Silos, sits Ireland Park, commemorating those who fled Ireland during the Great Famine (1845-1852).
-
Curtis Island Lighthouse- Camden, ME
Looking like a idealized New England watercolor, the Curtis Island Lighthouse sits at the head of Camden's harbor. First established in 1835, the current brick tower dates to 1896.
-
Acadia National Park- Bar Harbor, ME
Acadia National Park is moody and somewhat morose in the winter, but also devoid of the summertime masses. Still breathtakingly beautiful, the dramatic rocky coastline and misty mountain lakes offer a quiet respite for intrepid offseason travelers.
-
Portland Head Light- Cape Elizabeth, ME
Located just up the coast from Cape Elizabeth Light is the oldest lighthouse in Maine, Portland Head. So old, it was built at the request of George Washington, while Maine was still a part of Massachusetts.
-
Cape Elizabeth Light- Cape Elizabeth, ME
Located on a windswept rocky promontory, the Gothic Revival Cape Elizabeth Light has been protecting Cosco Bay since 1874. Its desolate beauty has been inspiring people for almost as long.
