JAMES L NELSON - PIRATE/AUTHOR

Camden, ME - I saw this guy dressed as a pirate and took a photo of him. I looked him up and on Wikipedia found that he is a rather prolific author. If you like reading historical novels of the sea between the American Revolution to the Civil War this is the author for you.

CAMDEN ME HARBOR

Camden, ME - This is a photo of Camden Harbor during the Windjammer Festival taken from the hill in front of the library.

RIVERHOUSE FOOTBRIDGE

Camden, ME - These are photos of the Riverhouse Footbridge in Camden Maine. It is in front of the Riverhouse Hotel, where I just read is pet friendly for all you dog lovers.


On the sign in the back is a sign that has the date 1953, so I assume that is how old this bridge is. It is just covered with flowers and vegetables.


There are a few of these hanging tomato plants.



While taking these photos my brother and sister in laws, who we went to Maine with, just happened to be coming from the other side.

THE HUMBLE FARMER AT THE PIE BAKING CONTEST

He does commentary interspersed with very dry Maine humor that you really have to think about to get the joke. Between commentary he plays old jazz.

Judges hard at work.



The cutting of the pies.

By the way...I didn't get the name of the winner but it was the same person who won last year.
