Mainiacs is a revered term, only given to those who are 5th generation (or more) born in Maine. If you were born in Maine but you are 1st - 4th generation, you're a Mainer. Everyone else is just "a person from away". I came to Maine for "just one semester," but now I'm "tenure track" which means I'm here to stay for a while. As I was in those first few months, I am very excited about this adventure and the chance to meet the great people of Maine.

2/6/2008 UMF in the snow
This is one of three official UMF signs. I think it looks cool in the snow. I have a photo of my Albuquerque Family (Fran, Stephanie, and Terry) in front of this sign, but it is still in my camera that fell out of my pocket when I was hiking, so I really don't have that photo. I hope "Family" will send me a copy of the photo they took on their camera. This sign is about as tall as I am and if I could juxtapose those two photos, you'd see how much snow this really is!
