Phase Three: Day 9b: S. Portland to Bath ME

I enjoyed a short drive to Bath today. It was a Chamber of Commerce day!

This is my first visit to Bath so I took some time to tour the sites.

I drove to Library Park where I viewed the Spirit of the Sea Sculpture. Here’s a selfie with the sculpture and an American Gothic Style former church in the background:

Here’s a closeup of the statue, which was gifted by artist William Zorach to the City of Bath in 1962. The statue is believed to enchant both residents and visitors.

I drove by the Chocolate Church Arts Center, formerly the Central Church of Bath completed in 1847 in a Gothic Revival Style. I couldn’t stop to take a picture (no parking). For those interested, pictures of this interesting looking structure are available to view online.

I drove by Bath Iron Works. I know from experience to observe where the shipyard workers go to find a good place for lunch.  I enjoyed a delicious BBQ sandwich at Fiona’s Restaurant.

My cough continues to get better.

Tally for the day: 0 miles.
