“Two roads diverged in a wood, and I took the road less travelled by, and that has made all the difference.” – Robert Frost
This week we are challenged to feature images seen on back country roads. Roads we walk or ride on off the beaten path, through farmland, forests, quaint small towns or in the middle of nowhere.
Here are a few sights which caught my attention when exploring unknown country roads. The building below is on Peake’s Island, a small Island in Casco Bay off the coast of Portland, Maine. Peake’s Island is only accessible by ferry; the few people who live there have cars, otherwise others have to transport their vehicles on the small ferry.
The unusual garage doors plus the old gas pump in the yard caught my attention when traveling down this road, located on a side street in Kennebunkport, Maine.
Covered bridges are still seen in the northeast, some are large and impressive looking like this one while others tend to be small and probably not used much. This bridge is located at Screw Auger Falls within Grafton Notch State Park near Sunday River in Newry Maine.
Wildwood Baptist Chapel in Kennebunkport, Maine was built in 1910.
A fair number of people around tend to be quite creative with their mailboxes! These are two of my favorites along the back roads!

Beth with Wandering Dawgs is the guest host this week. She encourages us to take time, perhaps travel slower and explore unknown places, looking out for things of interest. Be sure to see her interesting post!
