Thank you, Dilettante. That explains soooooooo much!
I know I rarely comment here but I am laughing out loud. Can you hear me laughing all the way in San Francisco? That whooping you are hearing in the wind? that's me laughing.
Oh great.
Next you're going to tell us that you don't really spend the entire winter padding around on 100-year-old snowshoes your great-grandfather first used when he was at St Throttlesex.
Sheesh.
My son went to school in Vermont and that's where I learned about the three seasons: winter, mud, summer. Next thing you are going to tell me is that there is a hockey team named Polar Fleece!

Ancient, wait and see...
HBD, those season are correctly referred to as winter, mud, and blackfly.
This blog gets blacked out in Kennebunkport, right?
Because I've put in too much time shielding my summer guests from being exposed to the real Maine to have you spoil it for me now.
Yes, I certainly came with the tribal garb, if not the Prada. Are you sure I can't get a green fleece bathing suit around here? Gawd, that sounds useful!
re:dining in maine - i know you won't forget helen's but if you mention the much touted place in wis cassette, i will have lost all faith in you. also, altho cut in half, it would be nice to bring up the mardens of food i.e. Caswell's and there is now a mini caswells in unity at The Pit Stop right across the street from Unity Raceway which i'm sure you'll mention in your What to do on a Saturday Night in Maine guide. i'll be looking forward to it. (sidebar -where do these expressions come from anyway? how many people are looking backward to it and what the hell does "by and large" mean?)
security word def - unfortunately with the change in privacy policy at google, they are using a new anti- robot word system which appears not to be as much fun as the old system to wit: today's security word is - negzat omfarpr. now, how they knew the name of my ex wife escapes me but there you have it.
Most amusing!
LL Bean trumps Prada any day in NC!pgt
one of the several xmas seasons i worked at beans, i worked in returns. the peak for this section is not december but january. at one point they had 212 trailer truck full of 37000 returned items. we had a big stack of boxes by my station that we worked on processing sending back to the store, to the outlet or to the employees store(where i shopped - $40 chinos at the e-store - 5 pairs for a dollar).we never got to the boxes on the bottom of the pile and i asked the guy who delivered more boxes every day, "Aren't beans afraid they'll be out of style by the time we get to them?" "in his laconic yankee, he said "no chance of that - they never were in style"
security word def - "gasedish niriemba" -what i ate last week at taco bell -oh my stomach!!!
