Sea gulls hunt the waves

Lobster buoys in varied hues

Bob in summer’s thrall

Pumpkin, squash abound

Wispy clouds ‘neath crystal stars

Autumn sweeps the skies

Pine boughs bend and sigh

Frosted white by northern winds

Hard in winter’s keep

Geese in noisy flight

Fiddleheads across the land

Peepers call to spring

Andrew Kraus, Belgrade (formerly Harpswell)

‘Committee think’ is necessary

I am a member of the Harpswell Comprehensive Plan Task Force, but this letter contains my thoughts only. I do not speak for the committee. I write in reply to the June letter from Scott Ruppert ("Affordable housing's tentactles").

The legacy of HCA

I had the pleasure of being interviewed recently for a living history project at Harpswell Coastal Academy. I found the questions very thought-provoking and, at times, I struggled to find words and keep emotions in check.

Who are we to judge?

I'm not sure what to make of your August article looking at the legacy of the Skolfield family and its "ties to slave economy." The article seems to suggest that we would all do well to "reexamine" this family and its legacy in the light of "new research."

Dyakuyu, School House 1913

Whether it's in English or Ukrainian, we owe a huge debt of gratitude and thanks to The School House 1913 restaurant. Their generosity was the keystone upon which Harpswell Supports Ukraine was built.
