Clearing the bluff to the water




We spent the last few days clearing the bluff for accessing the water. The drop off is fairly steep and we have cleared out many dead and small trees. Maine shorefront zoning laws allow you to cut down trees that are 4" in diameter or smaller within 75' of the shore. Any trees that are wider than 4" and within the 75' of shoreline cannot be touched.

Oh....Nicole got herself a "alligator" chainsaw and gas generator from Home Depot. I had to slow her down before she cut down the entire state of Maine. She just loves her litttle Alligator chainsaw.

Wow, we're jealous of your location. We've always wanted to settle down in Maine since we honeymooned in the Belfast area. Welcome to the FirstDay club!
