Oriental’s Town Dock. We think of it as the town’s “International Airport.” It is usually occupied… visiting boats from around the world seek out the opportunity to tie up in the village for free (up to 48 hours).

Coming down to the Town Dock to look at the visiting boats is a local pastime. But when the dock is occasionally alone, it has a certain beauty of it’s own.

Laura’s eye visits the Town Dock:

Laura Turgeon and her husband Gil Fontes live in Oriental. When they are not out looking at boats Laura and Gil are often seen with drawing instruments or paint brushes in hand. More of Laura's work can be found at her site LauraTurgeon.com.
