Thinking of Summer – and Lobster – on the Marginal Way in Ogunquit

by Eric Taubert
Marginal Way in Spring - Ogunquit, Maine

There’s something special about visiting Ogunquit.

Simply standing on the scenic Marginal Way cliff walk. Appreciating the ocean in one of the most beautiful towns in America…

Don’t you ever get the urge to just sit on a Marginal Way bench in Ogunquit and watch the Gulf of Maine waves come in all day long…

Late April is the time of year when the Maine skies clear, the buds emerge from bare branches (seemingly overnight), and everyone embraces the slightest opportunities to get outside and get near the ocean.

Waves crash and the air has the perfume of clean, cold salt water.

The scent surfaces nostalgic images of summers past. You close your eyes and the hint of cool spring sun warmth in the air reminds you of an almost forgotten evening by the sea. Vivid images come to life –  lobster rolls, ice cream and long walks on Ogunquit sidewalks as the streetlights flick on and the entire night, and your entire life, lies ahead…

Suddenly the waves conspire to produce a boom – shaking you from your momentary daydream memories.

No worries – you’re still in Ogunquit, under a crystalline sun illuminating sea foam that glints with the movement of the waves…
