This is a truly quick sketch of the view from our room at the Bar Harbor Inn - we are right on the ocean front, waves lapping on the rocky coast. We view Frenchman's' Bay out to the Atlantic, with the Porcupine Islands in view (one is pictured here - notice the shape?)
Today there is a small cruise ship in our "backyard" (how rude). Gorgeous morning to sit on our veranda on the second floor in our jammies and have coffee while the lobster boats scurry about checking traps. Normally we would spend hours enjoying this changing view and I would have loads of sketch time - but this year we have visitors so we are off to do the tourist thingies!
More to come of Bar Harbor when I get home this weekend.
