The fair -- not Fryeburg? I think that one comes a little later in Sept, right? I was there a few years back during a drive from CO to Portland. I really love Maine! Don't think I could hang with the winter though. At the time I thought about buying and moving there, but everyone we met thought we were nuts to leave CO, even the postman who came into the breakfast place. We were enjoying our breakfast and chatting with the owner, when the postman looks at us and says "You're form CO?" We said yes & he said he couldn't wait to get back, and had put in for a transfer. He said the winters were killing him. That about did in my thoughts of moving. But the people and energy there is really incredible!! You are very lucky! It's the Blue Hill Fair of Charlotte's Web fame. Very small, lots of ag exhibits, 4-H, sheepdog demonstrations, tractor pulls, loud rides and Fair Food. It's just about perfect. I used to win ribbons for my quilts before I changed. Winters aren't *bad* here on the coast - merely *long*. We don't mind that it keeps the faint-hearted away ;-) I'm hoping for lots of snow for snowshoeing this year - last year we had nearly none. It's a very beautiful place to be - we *chose* it. -- Walking (but mostly biking!) on . . . Laurie in Maine 207/110 60 inches of attitude! Start: 2/02 Maintained since 2/03 |
