There are numerous NELL trips and other lighthouse events like Connie Small's 100th birthday, the opening of the lighthouse museum, the Maine Quarter adoption ceremony at Pemaquid light, and Opsail Maine with tall ships off Portland Head, and more.Lots of favorite other scenic places like Acadia National Park, with music that is largely a national park series CD, The Sounds of Acadia, that runs non-stop start to finish, quiet music with coastal sounds. You may even find yourself in one or more of Tom’s images. Invite your friends, especially if they live in Maine.Members please check your email for log-in information.
