Winter Morning in Boothbay Harbor

Visit Boothbay Harbor in the winter, and you'll see a town transformed from a kitschy tourist trap into a true Maine fishing village. Most of the stores are closed, the streets empty, and the windjammers and tour-boats gone. It's a welcome change of pace for me. I find myself overwhelmed and annoyed at all of the commotion in the summer. Although I do love going out on a whale watch or catching the ferry to Monhegan from here, and those certainly wouldn't be as fun this time of year.
