You can walk around the entire little island and back to the sandbar.
Anne is getting ready to take a picture:

Sunset has arrived; it comes early in November.
A few other pictures from that day:
We had a fabulous meal at the inn. Their chef, Justin Cherry, made us a special vegetarian meal in celebration of Paul's birthday (wasn't the exact day but close enough). We regret that we didn't take any pictures of the meal. We did write a description of it:
Chef Justin is now in South Carolina, and his passion is historical re-enactment cooking.
The following day (Monday) was rainy, which didn't lend itself to taking many pictures. We drove around seeing various places, and spent some time in Castine. The Maine Maritime Academy is in Castine.
There are also some old forts, nothing but earthworks left now: Fort George and Fort Madison. These pictures are from Fort Madison.
