Great to know, I will share the news with my bride. And, thank you for your support, it's the reason we serve - for our fellow American.

Welcome to Maine MD family.!
"Maine, the way life should be" even if it is harder at times.
Nothing like Brookies in the backyard either

Good luck with it !

Here are a few photos of our stay. Somehow my wife was always behind the scenes. Our three boys had a grand time!

Enjoy the pic of our ride home, those boys were wore out

Wonderful! Thanks for the pictures, beautiful family. Keep in touch with your work on your land, building a house etc. You have a couple of years to go if I remember right?

There was someone who bought two parcels in Aroostook County this past winter, was posting lots of questions, moving out this spring to start from the ground up. I keep wondering how they're doing, they probably don't have any internet yet!

Beautiful land! Will this be vacation land or permanent in the future? Either way it will be a great place to spend time.

That's great. I'm happy for you. I'm looking at a couple of places near Danforth, talked to the Realtor and hope to get up there to check them out in July or August. I love Maine, been there many times over the years. The people of that state are great too.

There's no sense in complaining bout the mosquitos in Maine, they'll bite you anyways.
I'm sure Minnesota and Alaska share our state bird. I've been told they are worse in Alaska, which is one of the few reasons I live in Maine and not there.
