Seen outside the student center. There was an email to the whole campus saying someone had cleared the snow away from a garden next to the library and that tulips were coming up. I wonder if someone cleared the snow away here, knowing this (whatever it is) would be coming up. I don't know what it is, but I think it's a sure sign of spring.
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.
