Love Maine, used to vacation up there around Kennebunkport. Thought about retiring there, but the land values were out of my league. Welcome to the blog.

Let me add my welcome as well. Maine's a state I've never been to, but have long wanted to see. I hear your lobsters are the absolute best in the world, and that you can't really know how good they truly are unless you go there and eat one fresh. Chances I'll ever get there are slim, now, but the desire to see your fine state will never die in me. Being a southerner, I'd probably want to go in summer. Are the lobsters good in summer there?

I have a question for the Maine resident. I watch "Northwoods Law" occasionally and Maine conservation officers seem like arrogant pieces of s***. Are they really that bad or is it just the show? I have dealt with officers in California, checking liciences, gunplug and general information and for the most part they have been very helpful. Northwoods Law seem vrey nasty. Is it the show or are they nasty?

welcome to the forum from a Mainiac in Exile (by choice) out here in the Midwest where the jobs are good, the taxes are low and the people are pretty dang cool as well.
I hail from Dover-Foxcroft myself.
Duckiller - Northwoods Law does play it up some like 90% of reality TV but I will tell you there are individuals up in the back sector of the state that requires a bit of some wild lawman in order to get through to them. Those folks who think nothing of living with a year-round hunting and fishing season or the folks who think its cool to have a grow operation back in the swamps or over on the paper company land...

We've driven to Maine twice from Tennessee. Seems like it takes forever but the scenery is beautiful. Too old to do it again but glad I did. As others have said, you have just done away with all your free time.

As others have said, you have just done away with all your free time. Made that drive at least 1/2 a dozen times now. Originally from the Carolinas. Somewhere around 1300 miles one way equals lots and lots of coffee

I never kept track of the miles but from our home in W. TN it is over 400 miles to Bristol, TN/VA.
