Next time up in Maine, I'm going to eat at your restaurant. I'm living in CO now, but my family has a place in Maine. Maine is in my blood and I go back every year. Love that rte 1 drive through Camden, Rockland, Waldoboro, Lincolnville, Thomaston and etc... Great video.

As someone who spent his IDYLLIC formative years (3rd-9th grade) on a 90-acre farm in so. Maine, once you get bitten by the "Maine bug" then it stays with you (and DEFINITELY with me) forever, and eventually Maine calls ppl back to visit and/or live there again. Ayyyupp!
