If you had just 24 hours left in Maine, what would you do?
If it was a warm and sunny day, I’d join friends and family on a boat, take a swim, watch the sun set, eat a lobster, drink an Allagash, then try and maneuver a way to stay another 24 hours. If it was cold and gray, I would have brunch at Local 188, go to the Flea for All, walk around Congress St., have a great dinner at 555, see some music at Port City Music Hall, then try and maneuver a way to stay another 24 hours.
