When I got up there were a couple deer about 50 feet from the van.  I did four watercolors by coast guard station, then did my tai chi.  Time to head out-said goodbye to my previous evening hosts and went back to Jonesport and had lunch at the Stowaway- grilled cheese, french fries and coffee-$1.72.  Went back to spot of a couple nights ago.  It was high tide so, just right for doing a painting, which I did after taking a bath in the bay.  I painted the periodic island as I call it because of it sometimes not being an island.  This painting I gave to my brother years ago, but he doesn't remember it or have any idea where it is, but I did another a few years ago from the photo.  Later headed north to Quoddy Head State Park which I consider the north east corner of the US, although I don't know if this is official.  And I did it one better because I walked out one the offshore rocks as far as I could.  (I have almost been to three of the corners but missed one by about a 1/4 mile )  After a stop at the Lubec boat ramp I went north of Whiting on 1 and parked by the water for the night.  87.6 miles for day
