Owl’s Head State Park, Maine

Owl’s Head Lighthouse, 5/25/2024. Visited this lighthouse on an impromptu trip to Maine last year. Little did we know that they had just opened for the season that day, but we got there *just* too late to catch a tour. We even went back the next day, but missed it then too. Bummer! Anyway, despite missing the tour, this was still a really fun lighthouse to visit. It’s perched high up overlooking the ocean, and the view is incredible! If you’re into ghost stories, there are apparently many involving this lighthouse.

I don’t believe in ghosts (I’m no fun, I get it), but I do like pets. The last picture is the grave marker of Spot, who was the light keeper’s dog who served from 1930 to 1945, and according to www.lighthousefriends.com (such a great resource), would ring the fog bell anytime a ship would go by - and the ships knew to ring their fog bell or sound their horn in response. Which is awesome. RIP Spot!

F.E.8 (flyable replica) Seen here at the Owls Head Transportation Museum in Maine, USA is a replica of a British 'pusher' fighter of WW1. It was constructed in California (and powered by a modern inline engine, rather than the original rotary) then flown across country. This Royal Aircraft Factory design resembled the DH.2 in some respects, but was less manouverable and only slightly faster. In service it was no match for the German Albatross biplanes. #WW1 #RoyalAircraftFactory #FE8 #RoyalFlyingCorps #RFC #pusherbiplane #replica #fighter #OwlsHeadTransportationMuseum #Maine #OwlsHead #museum #aviation #WorldWarOne #California #rotaryengine #avgeek #aviationlovers #aviationgeek
