Fort Edgecomb Palisade

Time and termites have done their damage: this portion of the reconstructed coastal fort has now collapsed and has been removed.

After spending some time on Instagram, looking at photos, I have determined that everything(!), everywhere(!), has been already photographed by everyone(!). Thus currently, I believe viable topics are temporary or ephemeral scenes ... but I did not know then, that this old fort barricade would be eliminated; and so, "saved" by a photograph.

Hey Andy -- Actually the local tribes/First Peoples were allied with the colonists, and all would have been on the inside of the fort. The walls were to keep out those pesky British redcoat guys. HFF and Good Health, Wally ...

L. L. Wall replied to Andy Rodker:

I looked on a Wiki map, and it appears The Penobscots were a little north of this coastal area of Maine, which was inhabited by The Kennebecs (also known as The Norridgewocks and/or The Kennibis). In my Maine locale (far-"Down East", the northeast corner of Maine), the largest group nowadays is The Passamaquoddys, with a couple of destitute reservations, and also The Micmacs and The Maliseets.
