She's a HUGE fan of the local music scene and covers it along with national musical happenings in her "Face the Music" column and with artist interviews that appear in print in the Portland Press Herald and online at Mainetoday.com. You'll also find her out and about absorbing live music like a sponge and roaming around local record shops and flea markets.

Ride a zipline at Monkey Trunks
If you’re not afraid of heights and love a good adrenaline rush, we’ve got just the place for you. Monkey Trunks Zipline Park in Saco (and there’s one in Wells, too) offers zipline tours in the woods around Cascade Falls. And if that’s not enough of a rush for you, try your hand at its adventure course. On it, you can race your friend on dual 700-foot ziplines, scream your head off riding a 35-foot giant swing, ascend a 45-foot climbing wall and pretend you’re on “Survivor” with swinging beams, tightropes, rolling logs and other challenges.
