The Spring has Sprung

Good day, my loyal readers- or reader, as it may be- and welcome to spring. The first day of spring was a glorious celebration of sunshine and growth. Three days later, it snowed. Thus is the brilliant confusion that is spring in New England. As we shrug off the dustig of snow, and look hopefully towards our gardens, our convertibles, our boats and our picnic blankets, we are creeping ever closer to the warm summer sun. Sooner than we know, store fronts in Boothbay Harbor will be opening their doors to greet eager patrons. Bars and restaurants will be open their menus for hungry customers, eager to delight their taste buds with new selections.
In local news, the ugly building that squatted atop the hill by the Congregational Church has been demolished. An interesting blight on the landscape, this former doctor's office was full of intrigue- it is to be a parking lot, which should tend to be less dramatic and more practical than a doctor accused of spying on his tenents.We here at Fisherman's Wharf have planned some changes of our own; we have planned renovations to about twenty or so rooms, which, we hope, will add to the enjoyment that our guests experience here on their vacations.
This spring, as you endevour to grow living things in your garden, clean up the yard after the lastest weather vulgarity, even if its just sitting and grilling on your back deck to take advantage of the longer days, remember please, that soon enough it will be summer. Fisherman's Wharf will be open for business on the 21st of May, and the summer in Boothbay Harbor, Me will have arrived.

  1. There’s a lot of good hiking in Maine. The Boothbay Region is a perfect destination for a hiking vacation. The area has a preserved land trust which boasts over 1,000 acres of preserved land, with miles upon miles of hiking trails. Absolutely gorgeous, any time of year.
