Beautiful Homes

This is the home of some very good friends of ours, a gentleman who was the former CEO & Founder of a company that Celeste worked for. We spent a great evening with them, had an excellent seafood dinner, some good wine and some great conversation - may he rest in peace.

Kennebunkport Street Scenes

Typical street as we walked about Kennebunkport, it is scenic in every direction.
We were walking south on Route 9 when this picture was taken, that is the Clam Shack on the right looking at the Kennebunkport Marina in the distance.

Kennebunkport Entrance

This is the view from the southern entrance (along route 9), where cars cross over the old bridge into the village. The Atlantic Ocean is off to the right, and the inlet is just ahead. This bridge was constructed in 1933 and was replaced in 2017.

Kennebunkport Harbor

The harbor was obviously packed this day! You can see a few of the water-side restaurants in the background. Yes, this is a tourist destination town and you will find all of those typical tourist kinds of things here.
