Susan McBrayer of Sugar Hill sent in the photograph, which Allan Peel of San Antonio, Tex. commented on: “Today’s mystery photo is a picture taken from Mother’s Beach (also known as Kennebunk Beach), off the coast of Maine, just two-miles west of Walker’s Point Estate, the summer retreat of the Bush family, in the town of Kennebunkport, Maine.
Walker’s Point
“Mother’s Beach is part of a trio of beaches that includes Middle Beach and Gooch’s Beach, all of which can be found along Beach Avenue in the picturesque Kennebunk area of coastal Maine. My wife and I visited the area in August 2014, and although we did not visit Mother’s Beach, I did check out the Walker’s Point Estate and took a photo of the large central house that sits on the property. Informally called “The Summer White House” during H.W. Bush’s time in office, the New England shingle-style edifice has nine bedrooms, four sitting rooms, an office, a den, a library, a dining room, a kitchen, and various patios and decks.”
Others recognizing it were Paige Havens, Lawrenceville; Bob Foreman of Grayson; and George Graf of Palmyra, Va.
