It seems that the Point is quite busy these long winter days with construction activity.
While on their daily walks around Ocean Point Cilla and Dick Alden are excited to see the progression of the current construction of new homes and the many renovations taking place. Cilla also mentions the extremely high surf from the recent storm.
Cilla and Dick along with other Ocean Pointers will be caroling at St. Andrews this week and sharing a pot luck dinner afterwards.

Julie Brown submitted some spectacular pictures of the Point from that same storm which can be viewed on the blog. It is certainly a reminder of the power of the sea that most of us are not able to experience in the off-season. Thank you Julie.

Jack and Marilyn Heise are looking forward to visiting the Point for New Years and checking in on the progress of their renovation project in their new home and spending time with Ocean Point friends.

Congratulations to Dave Dudley on his recent Hall of Fame Award presented by the Maine Innkeepers Association. Dave was acknowledged for his outstanding commitment to improving and serving the lodging and tourism industry in Maine. All of us at Ocean Point have first hand knowledge of Dave’s tireless effort in helping to create what the Ocean Point Inn is today, thank you Dave. We are all so appreciative of your role in creating such a fine establishment in which to dine and vacation.

 Once again the Boothbay Region Art Association has honored Lou Landry for his confetti bowl design. Lou was voted the people’s choice award by the foundation. You may recall back in October Lou received first place honors in the ArtinMe show for this beautiful bowl. Congratulations Lou.

Thanks for all your news and have a great week.
