Knot Typical

This is knot your typical resort store...unless you are on the coast of Maine, near Bar Harbor.

When Angie & I were tooling around Northeast Harbor trying to get our bearings (thank you, Garmin), we drove past this amazing marine store. I thought the ropes in the window were just beautiful and all week I kept telling her:

"The ropes...I've got to get a picture of the ropes."

We finally made it back there in the daylight and this is the result. It is exactly what I had in mind...the colors, the textures, the giant spools.

To me, this photo represents the love of boating, and all I can say is "Ahoy!"
