October 4: Stonington, Day Three

Barred Island Preserve

 

Only fall's chill

keeps me from rolling in that moss,

swimming at that beach.

Every lawn hosts crows.

On a granite fence post

an offering of pears.

October 2: Stonington, Day One

Deer Isle, on which the town of Stonington is found, is one of the granite centers of Maine, with active quarries still cutting monument-quality granite. As we drove into town, we passed a flat-bed truck hauling a massive, multi-tone block of granite, a beautiful hunk of Maine stone.

 

Driving to Stonington--

truck hauls a block of granite

off the island.
