Beastly..
Lobster in Maine is not really a luxury food. It’s actually a sort of rustic item in Maine, eaten on paper plates on picnic tables, etc. Close to the coast it can retail for as low as $2.99 a pound in summer. Everyone eats it. You just have to avoid the restos with the tourist markup.
It’s the backbone of the local economy, as well. Regular folks catch it and regular folks eat it. I happen to prefer the haddock myself, but that’s me!
Lasting mark??
Bo do his business on somebody’s yard??
I hate Obama but must defend their vacation spot. Elite route? Acadia? It's one of the most beautiful natural places in this country. Maybe you're thinking of Kennebunkport?
OK maybe it’s a nice simple place, I’ll gladly defer to you.
My point was he could’ve/should’ve vacationed where people needed the help and the publicity. The $$$ wouldn’t much have mattered, but setting the example?
Just for fun, I googled OBAMA VACATIONS...you should see all the links!
