go to the big chicken barn. way the hell up there but they have some fishing junk squirrelled away. I am wishing I picked up a few of the old handlines they had.
if you head into portland, go to Norms Bar-B-Q.
theres a nice bait n tackle shop near by too.
also a few tique shops and other tourist traps
going further north, (stay on 195 [not 95] its shorter)
stop off in freeport at LL's outlet store.
Get dinner at the MuddyRudder. Mmm.. Crab Quesedias!!!
And their lobster stew is awesome!!
Moving firther up, in brunswick, go to "Stick-to-your-ribs Barbecue" its an old classic drive-in. I recommend you go inside if they have a clear table.
Keep on goin way the hell up, into bangor area. Go to lippincotts books and find some cool old books. Say hello to the cat.
You could even do the typical tourist thing and drive by SK's little house and get a nice peak at his cool wrought iron fence.
Head up into old-town and check out the kayak seconds at oldtown canoes.
and if you are in Bangor, you might as well go east into Charleston and eat at the countryside sat or sunday. they have an awesome breakfast buffet. It is not a tourist restaurant. the portions are large because the folks eaten them need that food to keep em going with the hard work that a life in Maine requires.
Then theres always the Governors too.
while in charleston, swing by Mike's Donuts.
If he is there you will get fresh donuts. If not too bad.
Sadly the dunkin's put a major crimp in his sales
you could swing out check on my folks cabin while you are there.
you should stay at least one night at the Sable Oaks marriott near portland. use the TFB code (Two For Breakfast) Relax in the hot tub or swim in the little indoor pool.
cheaper stay further north at the comfort-inn. free continental breakfast and another pool and hottub oportunity.
heck, I think I might have to go up there.!!!
