“Eggemoggin” translates to “fish weir place” from Abenaki, the native tribe; a weir is a type of trap placed in the water to catch fish. “Reach” is a sailing term that means to sail perpendicular to the wind. <\/p>\nAromatum blog<\/a><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n We had brunch at Tinderhearth in Brooksville with two of Sam’s cousins and his sister. Then we stopped for a short hike to Lookout Rock. There was snow on the ground, but it had melted sufficiently to allow for hiking on the granite steps and base rock. The little island in the center of the photo below is Pumpkin Island if my map identification is correct. The big island to the left is Little Deer Isle. In the distance to the right are the Camden Hills and Isleboro. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The photo below would be just an ordinary shot of trees and water from a lookout point, but a closer crop shows what I’m trying to capture – the fragile ribbon of Deer Isle Bridge. It is one of the most nerve-wracking bridges I’ve ever driven over. And it ends in a causeway that is just as nerve-wracking because it’s so close to the water. The causeway was covered with the sea, rocks, asphalt and other debris after our recent back-to-back storms, but now is mostly cleared. I think – we didn’t drive over it on this trip. <\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.gemtactics.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/img_7817-1.jpg\")
