He was a loveable fella that brought many people of the village (and our family, of course) joy as he did his strolls on the neighboring streets and swimming down on the beach. If anything, he showed us a great example of how to make the most of every day.” #goldenretriever #mansbestfriend #makethemostofeachday #cottagelife #baysidemaine

I think Mom was actually pregnant with Lindsay at the time. Mom and Dad were married 66 years ago last Friday (4/23/1955). Our favorite story about them getting married was the required interview with the Columbia University Chaplain. He asked them how long they had known each other. They proceeded to argue about whether it was 13 or 14 years! The Chaplain tried to intercede; he only cared that it was more than a few months. But, as he found out, there was little he could do to get them to stop arguing. Mom and Dad were each other’s best friends.

2021-04-26 Boating and a Bottle of Beer, submitted by Lindsay Huntoon and featuring Jo and Zelma Huntoon. “This is one of Wendy’s and my favorite pictures of our mom and dad. I think Mom was actually pregnant with Lindsay at the time. Mom and Dad were married 66 years ago last Friday (4/23/1955). Our favorite story about them getting married was the required interview with the Columbia University Chaplain. He asked them how long they had known each other. They proceeded to argue about whether it was 13 or 14 years! The Chaplain tried to intercede; he only cared that it was more than a few months. But, as he found out, there was little he could do to get them to stop arguing. Mom and Dad were each other’s best friends. She always told us that a successful marriage was based on being friends with your partner. Wendy and I both followed our parents’ advice.” #tbm #boating #blacklabel #beer #sailing #sweethearts #penobscotbay #baysidemaine

2021-04-13 Resurrected, photographed last August by Dave Witherill. “This is a photo of a resurrected official Maine flag that was approved by the legislature in 1939 as Maine’s ‘merchant and marine flag to be flown on vessels hailing from the State of Maine.’ It was aboard the ‘Bowdoin’ on voyages to the Arctic commanded by Donald MacMillon. In the 90s, it was dug out of the sail locker by Capt. Andy Chase when he skippered the ‘Bowdoin’ to Greenland for Maine Maritime Academy. In recent years, Capt. John Worth (also a former Bowdoin skipper) has promoted the flag, and it is flown aboard the ‘State of Maine’ on its annual training cruise. The flag may be purchased at Hamilton Marine. It is intended to be flown from vessels, but retired sea captains are known to fly them from their flag poles!” #stateofmaine #bowdoin #mainemaritimeacademy #flags #baysidemaine

2021-04-08 Overcrowding at the Wharf, photographed by W.C. Tuttle (1835-1901) and presented as a “stereo card.” According to Earle Shettleworth, Maine State Historian, W. C. Tuttle of Belfast made stereo view cards between 1860 and 1900. Shettleworth states that “these now rare photographs provide the single most comprehensive pictorial history of Maine during the second half of the nineteenth century.” The Bayside Historical Preservation Society (BHPS) has a small collection of the 85 or so known views of Bayside. Shettleworth recounts the fascinating history of Tuttle and stereo view cards in the BHPS-published history, If These Cottages Could Talk. #steamships #earleshettleworth #bhps #thewharf #penobscotbay #baysidemaine

2021-03-05 Cleanup Time, photographed by Jon Linn and showing the largely completed waterfront project. The seawall is complete, the new treatment building is in place, the causeway has been graded and the granite blocks have been placed to protect the rebuilt northern seawall. As noted last Thursday, the contractor is in the process of shutting down for the remainder of the winter. Even though the actual construction will be paused, non-authorized vehicular traffic will still be prohibited beyond the barricades and signage. During the winter thaw, this area can be very muddy and unstable at times. The wharf will be safely accessible to pedestrian traffic directly down Main Street and to the causeway, but please note that the remainder of Ruggles Park is still a construction zone, and everyone should keep clear of it until the site is fully restored. #cleanuptime #seawallproject #whatamess #builttolast @holmesmillco @nyc_bayside #rugglespark #parkrow #thewharf #penobscotbay #baysidemaine

2021-02-18 Bayview Park from the Beach, from a postcard donated by John Dykstra to the Bayside Historical Preservation Society. Beverly Crofoot, who is cataloging the BHPS’ collection, writes, “Tuesday morning, I catalogued this unusual view of Bayview Park from the beach. I believe it shows the shorefront cottage owned by Judy Rohweder and the Freeman cottage. No Cressey cottage between. The postcard has a 1908 Bayside, Maine cancellation.” #tbt #bayviewpark #bhps #baysidemaine

2021-12-13 My Cottage Story, submitted by Patricia Campbell, the new owner of 33 Broadway, who shares her cottage story: “In October, I took my husband Harry to Camden to celebrate his 89th. While visiting the skipper of Angelique, a Maine windjammer, he told me I must buy a house in Maine since we are there often. We laughed, and then he told me about Bayside, saying that, since I love the ocean so much and Bayside is so quaint, I should see it. Harry and I were going to Belfast the next day to lunch with Angelique friends, so we popped in. I was charmed. Up and down the roads we explored and then I saw a for-sale sign in front of this cottage. I literally turned to Harry, apologized, and said I had to see it. That was Saturday. Sunday came and Blair [Einstein] appeared with the key. I was like a kid, exploring every nook and cranny. It’s tiny, I said; like living on a boat! Monday, I made an offer. Harry is always game for an adventure. I told him I was buying it for his birthday present. Ha-ha! Tuesday, the deal was done. Since that fateful October day, I have cleaned it out, made plans, added a few things and tucked it to bed for the winter. The picture is of me on the porch the day I first saw the cottage.” Congratulations, Patricia and Harry! #mycottagestory #newhomeowner #cottagelife #baysidemaine

2021-11-29 Bayside Tree Decorators, contributed by Jen Lannan. “Two Shore Road residents, Jen Lannan and Christy Mihaly, participated in The Family Trees event at The Concord Museum (https://concordmuseum.org/events/26th-annual-family-trees/). Wreaths and trees of all sizes are ornamented with inspiration from children’s literature and decorate the galleries throughout the holiday season. This year, Christy authored the book Water: A Deep Dive of Discovery. The book was selected by the event lead sponsor and publisher Barefoot Books.

2021-11-29 Bayside Tree Decorators, contributed by Jen Lannan. “Two Shore Road residents, Jen Lannan and Christy Mihaly, participated in The Family Trees event at The Concord Museum (https://concordmuseum.org/events/26th-annual-family-trees/). Wreaths and trees of all sizes are ornamented with inspiration from children’s literature and decorate the galleries throughout the holiday season. This year, Christy authored the book Water: A Deep Dive of Discovery. The book was selected by the event lead sponsor and publisher Barefoot Books. Ironically, Jen Lannan, trustee and veteran decorator, was asked to partner with Barefoot to bring the book to life on the tree. Bayside magic strikes again!

2021-10-28 Ferguson Cottage, from the postcard collection of the Bayside Historical Preservation Society. The card is postmarked September 1908 and mailed from Mrs. W. B. Ferguson in Northport to Mrs. Frederic Schoff in Philadelphia. Beverly Crofoot notes that Mrs. Schoff served as President of the National Congress of Mothers, and Mrs. Ferguson was its Treasurer. The organization, founded in 1897, would become the Parent Teachers Association in the 1920s. Beverly provides the following approximate interpretation of the handwriting on the postcard: “My dear Mrs. Schoff, Just closing my stay in my [?]. Shall hold the first meeting of ? Broads Comm EU Sept 14 or 15 when my committee (State) will be appointed & names forwarded at once. Have tried to put the right one in the right place.

It was fine coming up and there were some funny sights on the boat. We went to the moving pictures last evening, they have them in a large tent about like a circus tent. Helen and I are going bathing today. There are a lot of people here and more coming with every boat. Love, Alice. I marked the cottage where we stay.” Note the “X” below Nokomis.

Sharlene invited this group of Bayside friends to a lovely reception in memory of her late husband (and great friend to many), Jim Kelly, who passed away two years ago today.

2021-09-03 Always Beautiful, photographed in Ruggles Park by Cookie Santerre. The dinghy is lovingly maintained by Lisa Webster. Here’s some history of the unique planter, from the Parks Committee report in the 2002 Annual Report of the Northport Village Corporation: “A park beautification project was initiated by Jane Phillips. A request for the donation of a dinghy was put in the news letter, and three village residents responded, Harry Rosenblum, Claire Gotham, and Peg Lovejoy. The latter’s offer was accepted gratefully as the one most suitable to fill with flowers for placement in Ruggles Park. Wharfmaster Steve Trenholm transported the dinghy to the home of Todd Merolla and Joe Krulis, where the two restored it to perfection. By Memorial Day weekend, the dinghy was placed in the circle at the park and filled with flowers for everyone to enjoy. It was a collaborative effort by Todd Merolla, Joe Krulis, and Steve and Sally Trenholm, to make Jane’s plan a reality.” #dinghy #planter #flowers #flowerboat #communityservice @nyc_bayside #rugglespark #baysidemaine
