Well, it wasn't quite sunrise, but it was before 7:30am and it was beautiful. There are two banks on Main Street that each have a time and temperature sign. When I walked by (about 3 minutes before I took these photos), the one to the north said it was 30 degrees and the one to the south said it was 31 degrees. I guess it could be that the one further south was a little warmer. Frankly, all I know for sure, is that it was C O L D for October 6. But it was a great brisk walk on a crisp autumn day that was beautiful.
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.
