Bailey is one of the northeasternmost islands in Casco Bay, which boasts more islands than any other body of water in the country. Even at high tide, at least 222 of them ''are big enough for a man to get out and stand on," state officials like to say. Bailey Island is a bit bigger than many and, unlike most of the others, is accessible by bridge. Still, it is a small island -- just 2.4 miles long, barely a half-mile wide at its widest point, with about 500 year-round residents. Roughly a 2 1/2-hour drive from Boston, it feels very much like a world apart.

Visit Instructions:
To post a log to an existing U.S. Post Office waymark, you will need to post a picture of the front of the building, with the name of the post office in the background if that is possible.
A description of your Post Office is required, such as when it was built, history, outstanding or unique features, population of the city or town, just do a quick internet search and find an interesting bit of information about the city or town and add it to the long description, to make it more interesting. Even just adding in the population of the area can give others an idea of how many people this post office serves. This description should be at least three sentences.
If your Post Office has any unusual or unique features that you feel others would enjoy viewing, additional pictures are always welcome.
Including your gps device in the picture is not necessary, but wouldn't be cause for disapproval, as long as all other details of your log are acceptable.
