St John River Valley | The Crown Of Maine
The St John River Valley is the Crown of Maine.
When someone says they’ve been to Maine, ask them to tell you where. Dollars to donuts, the landing in Maine is usually near the Green Bridge on the state’s south end. Then after a short visit they probably high tail it back to the population centers below Maine.
Time, travel and knowing Maine is very tall, pretty wide keeps some from venturing too far north, east and west.
Missing out on so much up into the many interior sections to sample like the Crown of Maine.
The purpose of this blog post to leave you knowing more about the St John River Valley than when you stumbled onto the Me In Maine website.
More on settling the St John River Valley and the people called the Acadians, the French Canadians. To strengthen the mail route and plug a gap in service providing was one of the goals of the Quebec and New Brunswick governors.
The Acadians, displaced to make room for loyalists to the King of England after the American Revolution then moved from the southern valley to the north.
What was the carrot to entice the relocation? Moving for the land grants, the chance to gain the services of a priest and to reunite deported family members. (more…)
New Year’s Resolutions | Maine Simple Thinking, Quiet Places
New year’s resolutions, are you after simple living, doing your thinking in quiet places?
Is your new year’s resolutions list held firmly under a strong magnet on the front of your refrigerator? To remind your daily of the new dance steps you yourself penned.
The list of good intentions that causes glee or guilt. It all depends on how things unfold this new year. Assume the position for study and reflection developing your New Year’s plan.
Did you party late into the night and watch the ball drop?
Or are you late to the party about spelling out your New Year’s Resolution dream for 2020. What’s that? I hear muttering about you’re just too busy, no time. Just have not gotten around to carving out a list or why bother. Procrastination is one of the most common resolution list item to conquer for many.
So it seems lack of time is the biggest obstacle.
More time, what you long for way too much like a powerful hunger or thirst to quench.
Better use of the time is where the extra seconds, minutes or hours are hiding. Why always hurrying and out of time? Like cramming for a test. Why do you wait until the last minute to study? Is it because we run over booked lives with too much multi tasking? Or just waste the precious time we have on social media. Watching others with lives new and highly exciting compared to ours?
Maybe better use of our time is the number one New Year’s resolution to make.
To become better organized and remove the junk or clutter that robs the joy. To do a better job living
within our means and developing a savings plan of time and money. Keeping it simple living in Maine.
A lot of people living in high cost urban areas are all doing their homework, planning their escape to Maine.
Maybe that is your primary new year’s resolution? Been on your list year after year as you prepare for the jailbreak to get to Maine. You need more fresh air, clean water and all this wide open scenery. Lose the hemmed in feeling in the vastness of Maine.
A lot of the New Year’s resolutions are about improving and tightening up our physical health habits.
To go easier on the internal organs and realizing personal health is up to each of us to maintain. Respect the body like it is a temple. If you feel fit and trim, that’ll help big time. To improve the quality of life with the DNA hand we were dealt from the family gene pool. What your earlier loved ones in the family struggled with or died from too early in life. You think about those people more the older you get as the years fly by at a quicker pace. (more…)
