I'm not sure anything smells better than garlic and butter, outside with an ocean breeze.

That's from the Bar Harbor Inn here in Maine. Incredible views. Here's a wedding set up from a couple hours before...

I think they ask the boat to go by just as they're saying "I do."

If you're looking for a wonderful family getaway spot, Hancock Point is it. It's about 4 miles by water from Bar Harbor. The temperature in August is a perfect break from our 90 degree temps in Richmond but swimming is for the enthusiastic kid only (the water's cold).

This is a quaint little hidden place where some families have been coming for years. It can be tough to get a rental (especially in August), but send me an email and I can point you in the right direction. Our friends have a place with this morning view...

Very New England. More photos.
