aS A SINGLE MOM - ON WHAT WOMEN’S WAGES WERE BACK THEN - IT WASN’T EASY.
BUT BEST ‘MOVEMENT’ EVER.
NOW WATCHING MY GRANDKIDS GROW UP FAR AWAY FROM CALIF. AND OTHER PLACES FAR WORSE THAN MAINE.
mAINE, NOT BEING A GO-THRU STATE, TUCKED UP INTO CANADA AND ON THE OCEAN, ALONG WITH IT’S WINTERS PEOPLE ARE AFRAID OF (MAY IT REMAIN SO) HAS ESCAPED A LOT OF THE ROT...BUT IT’S A BATTLE.
WE RETAIN A LOT OF OUR GOOD, SOLID ‘ROOT-STOCK’ THAT FIRST SETTLED UP HERE HUNDREDS OF YEARS AGO - WE DON’T SUFFER FOOLS GLADLY.
THANKFUL TO BE BACK HOME.
I’ve been through Bangor during a big snowstorm. Two feet of of snow fell in one night. People driving off the road all over. It was nice countryside there though.
I was driving from Nova Scotia back to my base in Winnipeg, and it was faster to head through US than to drive in the communist east Canada heh.
