While passing through York, I couldn't resist making a detour to see the lighthouse lit up for the holidays -- a sight I never get tired of. This year it'll be lit during the entire month of January, probably to give people some needed cheer during the pandemic.

We love visiting the lighthouse at sunset. Gorgeous, romantic setting. Follow up with a walk-in Long Sands and the evening is made.

There is a lot of history around the grounds and while the feature is the light and the rocky coast, there is a great gift shop, several fine memorials, and plenty of grounds to walk. On this stormy day, you could imagine how the light was a protector of great coastal ships. Great way to spend part of our first full day in Maine.…

If nothing else, it reminds us of the simple pleasures winter brings. Don’t miss it.…
