  1. Faces aplenty melted tonight in denton courtesy of Girl in a Coma
  2. We’re considering it. Summers are perfect. Fall is popular with the leaf crowd. The coastal towns do christmas up big. There’s skiing to pass the time in the winter. There’s a ski mountain in Camden and a couple of larger ones more inland.
  3. That is a great park.
  4. Back in the day, we all clowned iraq for this.
  5. Oh. You’re not on signal and added to various whiskey fueled Defense Secretary chats? You should look into that.
  6. Cool. My far north dallas voting interests align closely with exurban texarkana.
  7. house of wings and tacos.MP4
  8. A couple years ago, we went to boston, and I had a really good stout near harvard. It was by a maine brewery called mast landing. The beer is gunner’s daughter. I looked for it in every restaurant we went to last week. It was at only one of them. West Street Cafe in bar harbor. Damn it was good.

  11. And where do Pemaquids come from? Damriscotta river. I’m telling ya. That’s the place. king eider’s pub in damriscotta.
  12. The center of the pedoverse The guy in the navy shirt looks like he knows it’s bad to be on camera. Skates past Maxwell quickly even stooping down to use her to block the view of him.
  13. Daiistar is great
  14. Thanks. We did a lot of driving and hit up some very cool coastal towns. Bar Harbor and Acadia, Camden, Rockport, Rockland, Cape Neddick, Damariscotta, Wiscasset, Bath, Brunswick, Portland, Cape Elizabeth, Kennebunkport, Ogunquit. My wife loves bookstores and Maine has a lot of them. We also did a sailing excursion in Camden during the Camden Cup Classic (regatta). There wasn’t any wind that day so the regatta was eventually called off. But we enjoyed “sailing” down to Rockport and back.
  15. One more set of pics from my trip. Dinner at natalie’s in camden. oysters to start. Wife had the chef’s tasting menu. tuna Quail entree - wagyu beef dessert I had the lobster tasting menu. entree dessert
  16. Mcloons lobster shack - lobster roll - south thomaston maine revised lobster roll rankings 1. Red’s - great flavor, ridiculous amount of lobster, pretty nice setting, location is very convenient as it’s right on Hwy 1, wait time is very long, best value 2. mcloon’s - best flavor of all the options, a good amount of lobster for the price, location is out of the way, best setting as it’s on an island where the lobstermen bring them ashore, wait time is minimal. They do offer a rolls royce version of their lobster roll for $55 with twice the amount of lobster. (as opposed to $30 for the regular size - all the places were around $30 for a lobster roll). 3. Clam Shack - kennebunkport. Flavor is excellent. Most expensive. Great setting in kennebunkport, location is convenient if you’re visiting kennebunkport, wait time is minimal 4. Nubb’s lobster shack - cape neddick - flavor is good, great setting - view of the Atlantic was gorgeous, location is out of the way unless you’re in ogunquit, wait time is minimal 5. Eventide - portland - flavor is great but it’s partly due to seasoning rather than pure flavor of the lobster, wait time is long, setting is just a street in portland, reasonably convenient location if you’re in portland - it’s several blocks from the old port, less expensive than other options but there’s less lobster than the others 6. mabel’s lobster claw - no flavor, wait time is longer than it should be, setting is fine, pass on this one
  17. I just ate these. King eiders pub in damriscotta maine. These are 2-8 years old from dodge cove. It’s like when I had my first beef rib at black’s in lockhart. The standard has been set.
  18. Actually worse. It’s plausible that many germans were not aware of the goings-on in the early stages. We are all aware.
  19. The lobster rolls at McLoons lobster shack are supposed to be among the best in maine. We’ll likely have those for lunch tomorrow. I’m interested to see how they measure up to red’s.
  20. I got there at 11:30. Ordered and got my food by 1:00.
  21. Revised lobster roll list: Red’s is at the top. At least 3x the amount of lobster and it was very flavorful without any seasoning. Just checked into The inn at ocean’s edge in lincolnville. The view. All I hear is the ocean in front of me, the infinity pool waterfall behind me, and the breeze in the trees. 69 degrees. Perfection.
