EEL Rock



We met some local Mainers today (Sharon &
Marvin) whom came by the site when Nicole was putting up the mailbox. Sharon & Marvin have lived in Gouldsboro most of their life. Marvin took me down to the large ledge rock on our property to tell me stories of when he was a boy. He and his friends would dive off the rock into the water. Its about 15 feet deep off this rock called "EEL Rock." Monkey and I are looking forward to swimming and diving off EEl rock next summer.

Supposedly the area we live around was an old mining area in the late 1800's. "Local lore has it that the water on our property has beds of silver below it. No don't worry we are not going to start mining just yet.
