Maine Misadventure

What town is that where you are buying? It sounds like something east of Lincoln...out by the lakes on the Airline. That is a pretty good guess given what I've written. The town we are buying in is East Machias, further east and further down toward the coast from Lincoln. I think that there is something staggeringly poignant (and characteristically American) about finding former farms and villages in the woods. When I was looking at moving to Northern Vermont, there was a town (I can't remember which one) where an entire complex of 19th Century factories running down a hillside was taken over by forest. It is supposed to be a surreal scene. |

I understand you will be in East Machias; you can't get very much more Down East than that. d;o) When you get to exploring it, don't forget the Rapid River in the Ranchleys (grid 18 on the Maine Atlas/Gazatteer). Gimme a call and I'll be your guide (fishing guide, that is). That sounds great Dave, I'll have to make a point of that. |

If you haven't been to rural sections of New York, you really cannot appreciate how rural it can be. ... But I would guess that most of the Maine coast will be developed eventually, even if other parts are not. We really liked Belfast. That's another town that appears to have had an industrial past. |
