[QUOTE="ThreeShadows, post: 336899, member: 6370"] Haven't lived in Maryland long enough to do this, but.... You know you're from Maine when your cousins from Brooklyn drive to your house belly laughing because of all the delis selling "hot Italians", when you read the police logs and recognize all the names because your run away gfgf has been couch surfing in their subsidized housing, when you call 4 inches of snow a "dusting", when your kids and their friends dig up the basement in your early 19th. century house, come up with a jaw bone and you actually know a forensic pathologist who can determine if it's human or not, when you call the basement downcellah, when all the lakes are covered in yellow dust in May and you know it's not terrorism, just pine pollen, when your house converts to a B&B every July and August for people from "away" that you happen to know, but they ignore your existence when you really need them during the 6 mos. of winter, when youve ditched the car on the side of the road somewhere because you thought you saw some good fiddleheads, when you've ditched the car because your kids are freaking 'cause you just killed a ruffed grouse and you have to go apologize to the critter to finalize the event, when you go to the town dump and bring back more than you brought, when youre supposed to dress up, you wear flannel with a tie, when the only traffic light in town blinks amber at 10PM, when you've been to your insurance office after killing a yearling moose on the T'pike and nobody blinks an eye because they all know truckers whose 10,000lbs loads were destroyed by 1,000lbs moose, when you know the plural of moose IS moose, This was fun! I think I actually miss the old place!!! [/QUOTE]
