If you know me, you know I L-O-V-E Maine!  It's where I spent most of my childhood and young adulthood...Northern Maine, about 30 minutes from the Canadian border.  It is beautiful and harsh at the same time.  Winters are COLD and LONG!  Summers are short and filled with mosquitos and black flies, campfires and bug spray are a must to keep the bugs away in the evenings, but that can't keep me away. Most people I meet are well aware of the beauty of Southern Maine...the coastline, lobsters, Acadia National Park, and all those sweet coastal islands that are...well...perfect.  However, there is another Maine.  Like the rest of Maine, Northern Maine is full of mountains, lakes, rivers, farms, and hard-working people.  It is full of Small Town, USAs that boast awesome local restaurants and tons of outdoor activities.  Don't get me wrong, Maine isn't without its issues...just like any other state.  But, Maine is my go-to place.  I love it, I miss it, and I always look forward to going back for a visit and staying as long as I can.  It is beautiful all year round and I hope you enjoy this little glimpse of summer in Maine.
