This is big news. Now you don't have to drive 4 hours to Boston to get to an Apple Store. You can do it in 2 hours by going to The Maine Mall (get it . . . the main mall?? and it pretty much is the only big mall in the state) in Portland. I'm part of a team from Farmington that was awarded a grant called the Maine Community Heritage Project. It's very exciting and I promise to blog more about it later. But we needed a computer, so I volunteered to go pick it up. w00t!
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.
