Many people ask if they have to take a ferry to Bailey Island. The answer is no. Here are three shots taken today from the three bridges that lead to Bailey Island. The first is from the Bailey Island bridge, the second from the Orr's Island bridge, and the last from the Great Island bridge. We are located 13 miles from Cooks Corner in Brunswick, Maine. The drive is very beautiful with many, many scenic spots.
The weather has been spectacular this week, sunny and warm. We have no snow at all. Actually, the magnolia is budding, tulips are up a couple inches, perennials are starting to grow. I would say the gardens will be early this year. For those of you who have been to the Log Cabin, you know we love our gardens!
Some very good news for Maine Street Brunswick was in last nights paper. The very large space vacated by Grand City has been purchased, with plans to put shops in it and hopefully reopen the restaurant. This will be wonderful. Downtown Brunswick is a very pleasant town....many restaurants, art galleries and shops.
Yesterday the people of Harpswell voted to keep both elementary schools open. There has been a lot of controversy over this vote, and the vote was close. Over 1700 people voted. So, for at least one more year, we will have two elementary schools in our town.
We open in 23 days. The Inn is looking very happy with all of Matt and Aimees hard work. Remember, we are having a 30 year celebration on April 10th from 2-5 pm, with music and food. Hope you all will stop in to help us celebrate!
Til next time, Sue
