Cape Elizabeth, ME

Youngest son had to fly back in the silver bird to Colorado and after dropping him off at Logan Airport in Boston, treated myself to some eye candy, a Maine lighthouse on the way home up I-95.

After seeing Lubec Maine's West Quoddy Head lighthouse this summer, something started to happen inside.

Decided need to be hiking around, snapping stills and shooting videos for this neat coastal historic treasure.

To sample more Maine lighthouses any time I can get near one along my travels.

This is the link to the Maine lighthouse video.

Captured, edited and uploaded from the close to sunset visit yesterday.

Decided also to hit more Maine public bean suppers no matter where they are in Vacationland too.

Maine, one big awesome state with less people.

But the ones we have are friendly.

Wave at you.

Smile.

Will help you out.

Wake up and start dreaming in blue, green in Maine.

For the month ending May 31st 2011 the Cape Elizabeth real estate market saw 10 single family homes and condos sell at a median price point of 440K.. a 11% year over year volume increase and a 38% year over year pricing increase..awesome! Statistics can be skewed, particulary given the smaller sample sizes, but it seems the greater Portland residential housing market continues to stabilize and improve contrary to larger national trends that are being reported.

It seems many parties from away continue to find this a very desirable area to relocate to and thus housing volume remained strong despite the snowy and cold winter we experience. Thus far in early Spring most signs seem to point to a continued strong real estate in Cape Elizabeth.
