It was the bicycle that caught our attention… its owner was able to allude the camera (seems our Canadian Photographer did not have a lens speed fast enough to catch him) but his dad and granddad were just coming back in with a bucket of fresh clams for dinner. Not quite the full summer population at the moment on Prouts Neck but if you look closely there is much to be seen going on at the beaches around Black Point Inn.
Interesting video appeared here today. This one of our sister property, Migis Lodge on Sebago Lake. Migis Lodge and Black Point Inn are two of the very few remaining historic resort properties in Maine. There are a few others to be sure, but not many remain.
We thought you might enjoy this video..

Interesting event here next to Black Point Inn on Prouts Neck this morning. A large truck arrived carrying a tree heavily wrapped in protective swaddling. A giant forklift came along and slowly lifted the tree up and off the truck.
Turns out the tree was a 25-30 year old Beech tree that was destined to be planted in one of our neighbors gardens. No doubt this Beech will have a wonderful view of the Atlantic Ocean!
The neighborhood around Black Point Inn is waking up with all kinds of Spring activity!
Ohh and a hint and reminder to some…. Mother’s Day is right around the corner…. don’t forget!
The first signs of Spring appeared this weekend here at Black Point Inn. We were lucky to have a Canadian photographer stop by and snap a few images of the first signs of Spring along the ocean out on Prouts Neck.
Pretty soon the fishing boats will be gliding by the Inn, the beaches will be full of folks enjoying the warm water, fishing, kayaking, and sailing. They are quiet now but soon the golf course and tennis courts will be busy with happy guests.
See if you can spot the last bit of snow… more images to come… especially if we can convince that Canadian photographer to take some more!
Oh… you may also notice cranes and other machinery in some of these shots. The Inn is doing some major work to the geothermal well system which is used to heat and the cool the inn’s guest rooms and common areas. The outside work is almost finished and after a little bit of plumbing work in the basement… everything will be ready for the upcoming season!
See you soon!
Just added a neat ‘plug-in’ that should update our twitter account every time we post a new blog. Helping to keep you up to date… if you are following us on twitter.
Hope this works..??.. nothing yet….. help!
New posting coming shortly…. spring has arrived to Prouts Neck!
