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.

7/25/08 Beautiful Flowers at the Farm
I don't know what kind of flower these are but they're big and beautiful and these pictures don't do them justice. Rodney and his "Mum" planted them right outside the porch window where she could see them and enjoy them.

My mom emailed me the answer to the question:
"Those are dahlias. I love them. They are a bulb. We had them in our backyard in Lancaster, CA. An interesting contrast in soil and weather."
Thanks, Mom!!
