Eastport Maine

Before leaving Machias we stopped to see Fort OBrien.


You can see where the bunkers were and they still fly a flag.  It overlooks Machias Bay.

We found a blueberry company!! Not very busy on Sunday.

Maine has some very interesting homes.  We like to call them Maine monstrosities because they go on and on with concoctions of connections of buildings..

The fire weeds are blooming!

Just not too straight.



They make their own mustard!  The sone was cracked so we didn't get to see them making any this time through, but we did sample some and bought a jar to enjoy along the way.

Eastport is the easternmost city in the USA!!

We check out where we could come to take the ferry over to Deer Island, Canada.

There an eagle just to the right of that biker.  We were sitting here watching the whirlpool when the eagle past.

The postoffice is getting a face lift.  Inside is just so amazing.  Look at this woodwork.

The postmaster showed us the marble fireplace in the office!  He said there are six more like it in the building.

Although it is a bit misty out we decided to walk around a bit.

















Okay time for the ferry ride.





Good bye USA for a few months; we are off to Pictou, NS.

Who knows what the new world will be like after this.

Clifford Karl Lambert

Cliff married my little sister, Maria and became part of our family. We traveled to Italy together one summer Cliff had the coolest Man Cave! He really enjoyed technology and used it at work, home and helped everyone enjoy theirs too. He bought a boat that he and my sister enjoyed for many years. He walked his daughter down the isle. And welcomed Travis into his family. Not long after Layla was born and he became a very proud Pap Pap. He and my sister retired to Florida. Where Cliff learned to golf. One of my best memories are of our Cookie Days together. Cliff worked at Lowes and enjoyed his job in the paint department. He got sick; he found out he had stage 4-bladder cancer. We went on our traditional breakfast together each time we got together over the years. He finished the first round of chemo treatments. But the cancer went into his bones. He kept smiling and living life to the fullest. He enjoyed ...
