Aint it GREAT !

Maine and Oregon have a lot in common............ except most of
Oregon is a bit more north than Maine we both sit around N 44-N 45 We
also share lots of common relatives. Ever wonder why so many towns in
Oregon are also found in Maine uhh, Portland for example.... Lots of
Maine to Oregon wagontrains traveled in the 1850s-60s. Hell, my gg
grand pa's middle name was Augusta they decided to head out west to
Oregon cause there were still trees to cut down out in Oregon and not
as many people........hows that for ya Roger Long?

I suggest you embrace those wonderful summer days......... all three
of em.
Or Heck come on out to Oregon..... Oh, The Washingto coast is really
nice too. Uh, that is if ya can find a place to duck into. NOt too
many "harbors" up that way. BC is W A Y cooooool too!

But Bob i have to agree with him.
Maine as a summer place kinda sucks.
mostly what makes it suck of course is that it is east of Oregon. then
again most of the country is east of us and it sucks as well.
all you have to do is watch the weather; by and large the clouds all
move east. something must suck pretty bad for it to attract all of our
clouds. from the sounds of it that would be maine.
