As the era's logging industry made the area more accessible, summer tourism bloomed around Moosehead Lake (which Thoreau described "like a gleaming silver platter at the end of the table"). People from major East Coast cities would swarm in for the season, reaching the remote area by taking a train or stagecoach to the village of Greenville Junction on the south shore of the lake, and then boarding one of the dozens of steamboats – also used for hauling logging equipment, mail and cattle – that would zip them to grand hotels, like the famed 500-room Mount Kineo House. One of the largest hotels in the country at the time, it boasted a bowling alley, telephone, electricity, three steam yachts and even its own baseball team.

I grew up in the US state of Maine at a smaller lake not far from here, and I spent many summers taking day trips to Moosehead Lake with my family. But this was the first time I boarded the historical Steamboat Katahdin, the last of a once-numerous fleet that used to ferry hordes of well-dressed elites from nearby train depots to the area's luxury resorts for their summer holidays.

Many flowers have evolved to be attractive to animals, so as to cause them to be vectors for the transfer of pollen. After fertilization, the o***y of the flower develops into fruit containing seeds.

In addition to facilitating the reproduction of flowering plants, flowers have long been admired and used by humans to bring beauty to the environment, and also as objects of romance, ritual, esotericism, witchcraft, religion, holistic medicine, and as a source of food.

A flower, sometimes known as a bloom or blossom, is the reproductive structure found in flowering plants (plants of the division Angios***mae). The biological function of a flower is to facilitate reproduction, usually by providing a mechanism for the union of s***m with eggs. Flowers may facilitate outcrossing (fusion of s***m and eggs from different individuals in a population) resulting from cross-pollination or allow selfing (fusion of s***m and egg from the same flower) when self-pollination occurs.
