Is this to be loosely based upon your (ex) neighbors?

Where we were was regrettably less colorful than Downeast, a world of its own.

I see you can still talk the ME lingo.

Without even any OxyContin in my system.

To be fair, the veins of the natives more commonly run with piss & vinegar.

I think their veins run with gold. After all, there is no more property being made. Except in Dubai.

Gold? Maine? Two words not often heard together.

It is not all Kennebunkport and Vinalhaven by a long shot. The state ranks 27th in per capita income, 32nd in median household income (research! ), with wide income disparity between coastal pockets of affluence and the struggling interior.

To which point, if it's property one wants, no shortage -- Maine is as large as all the rest of New England put together. Let me show you a nice little 3000-acre parcel, say just northwest of Baxter State Forest, that can be had for a song.

When I hear Maine, I think of Steven King..... creepy

[AdamSmith]

Yes! A New England "Blue Velvet."

Well, gee, after all the years I spent (one night) in BGR, I have few other than good thoughts about ME.

Actually almost all of the time I have spent in ME was in BGR and I found the folks there to be friendly, the lobsters good and even the weather to not be horrible. However, the nearby Atlantic Ocean no doubt moderates their climate a bit. They also did not seem to be after the very last dollar I might have in my pocket (unlike some places further down east).

Like many who are just passing through (the story of my life), I may have a different perspective from others.

Good thing you kept to a well known city, and didn't go roaming into nearby small towns looking to mix with the locals.
