Summer bliss along the 1.25-mile Marginal Way footpath in Ogunquit, Maine, where my beautiful daughter flips off her shoes and meets her reflection in the sand.
Other path highlights: the views afforded from 39 seaside benches, each dedicated to those who walked this way in times past; a classic New England lighthouse (yes, I’m a New England nerd, but check out this live lighthouse webcam); and the lobster rolls at M.C. Perkins Cove, founded by Top Chef Masters and James Beard “Best Chefs of the Northeast” winners Mark Gaier and Clark Frasier.
