A Maine Cobble Beach

2008.09.04











You start with a simple structure—

This is a different section of the beach.

If you have a cobble beach—you build totems. Just be wary walking on the rounded cobbles.

We walked down a makeshift path to get to this beach— and then I never wanted to leave.


“Even the upper end of the river

believes in the ocean.”

—William Stafford

cujimmy Those are huge rocks to move about!! Absolutely gorgeous love all the photos!

oldbabe You are right. Enlarging the photos really shows off the cobbles. I can see why you wouldn't want to leave. I've never been to a place like this. My daughter and granddaughters, who collect and polish rocks, would love the place.

Totems or cairns?

photopoet These are totems or simply stone sculptures.

Cairns, in Maine, are used to mark hiking trails and often have a "conical form."
