I have friends moving to Maine on June 1.  To a town called Harpswell that I
believe is close to Brunswick.

They've lived here in Jersey City for many years.  Frankly I think the
culture shock will do them in right quick. (Which would be a mercy for the
state of Maine, considering the personalities of my friends.)

(Actually, I wear plaid flannel shirts.  But only from Salvation Army and
Goodwill stores and only in extremely loud clashing colors. They're very
cozy to schlep around the house and 'hood in when it's cool out.)
