Google recently released many new Street View images, including the State of Maine. Street View is interesting. I was suprised about some of the places that Google recorded a Street View for and some of which it did not.
For instance, one of the prettiest and out of the way places in Maine may be The Bunker Hill Church in Jefferson, Maine. It has a view of Damariscotta Lake that is hard to beat on a clear sunny day. Click on the link below and pan left 3 times to see what I mean. [Link to Google Street View of Bunker Hill Church, Jefferson, ME]
But what I find interesting about Google Street View’s of Maine is that Google drove by this church. It’s not on a road I would call busy. In fact, I tried to go down really busy roads that Google didn’t travel down. For instance, Route 1 between Waldoboro and Damariscotta is not complete for about 5 miles. So I can’t even show people the turn to my house on Street View. But I can share the view of this small church on a high hill with a million dollar view. And way down acorss the lake amongst the trees and out of site, my house is there, somehwere.
One thing I have not done yet, since moving to Nobleboro, is actually go inside this church. Once or twice a month, we can sit outside our house and listen to organ music coming from way off in the distance. My wife does not believe me but I think it’s coming from The Bunker Hill Church. It’s soft and lovely and only 3.5 miles away as the crow flies.
