One Quarter of Maine [Explore] - a photo on Flickriver

Pemaquid Point Lighthouse is so iconic that it was chosen to represent Maine in the 50-state quarter series a few years back.

Located in Bristol, ME on the southwest point of Muscongus Bay and southeast point of Johns Bay, it was originally commissioned by John Quincy Adams in 1827. It sits on 400 million year old gneiss rock that is painted by algae and pounded by surf.

Congrats on Explore!
