Maine has the eastern most "point" but way up where there's not really anything.
But looking at North America on a global map one might think the eastern most point is Florida.
The furthest point east in the continental United States is in Maine at West Quoddy Head. It's a stretch of land extending into the sea with a lighthouse.
With this mention of Maine, what comes to mind for me are those four photos (posted earlier by LayoutGuru2) with the full moons overlooking NYC, a few bridges and specifically the one that looked like Maine. They do seem to be showing an interest in Maine.
This extreme east location, which is the first place in the US to see the sunrise, may be important to them with all their sunrise/moon calculations and emphasis on authenticated sightings of them.
The famous lighthouse there may figure in also, since they consider their minarets "the lighthouses of Islam" or "the lighthouses of faith". This may be symbolic to them.
West Quoddy Head Lighthouse is one of the best known of all US lighthouses, is a symbol of the Maine coast, and separates the US from Canada.
It would be a perfect spot for a minaret.
Maine is assumed to be the eastern most point in the U.S. However to be technically correct I think there are some of the Aleutian Islands off of Alaska that cross the international date line, making them the eastern most places in the U.S.
All of a sudden I am remembering something about a lighthouse that had been closed up and a security guard reported seeing some strangers there. Was it off the coast of Maine or was it Rhode Island? There is an association between terrorism and an island on the east coast that had been considered abandoned. Does anyone else remember?
