48 Hours Exploring the Art, Design, and Food in Waterville
Waterville, on the banks of the Kennebec River, is just a little over an hour from my home in Portland. I pick up my oldest daughter early from school. This weekend, she’ll learn about Waterville’s architectural, art, and design history, which helps lessen my guilt about cutting her school day short. We arrive at the Lockwood Hotel, located on Main Street in the heart of downtown. The 53-room boutique hotel is owned by Colby College and celebrates the city’s art scene with works drawn from the Colby College Museum of Art’s collection. The hotel was once the home of the clothing store Levine’s, and it honors the site’s past by using the granite from the original facade in the outside seating area’s hardscape. I note that this would be a perfect place to relax with a good book and iced coffee (or a glass of wine).
My Maine This Week: Borestone Hike by Linda Woods
This week’s photos were sent to us by NRCM member and My Maine This Week frequent photographer Linda Woods of Waterville, Maine. Thanks, Linda!. Along with these beautiful photos, Linda shares some information about the hike up Borestone, as well as what you might see along the way if you decide to do this hike: this is an Audubon Nature Sanctuary (Small admission fee. No dogs.), which includes 1,600 acres in Maine’s Hundred Mile Wilderness region as well as three ponds: Sunrise, Midday, and Sunset (all visible from the summit). And finally, at Midday Pond there is a nature museum that Linda says is good for kids.
