Driving up the coast of Maine

Right now we're headed towards Rockland, ME up route 1. Last night we stayed at a Walmart in Biddeford, ME and decided to see a movie at a theater close by. We saw Hancock, which was great, but real story is the theater we watched it in. Smitty's Theater isn't the typical theater, it's set up for "dinner and a movie" with long tables flanked by columns of the most comfortable reclining chairs we've ever sat in in a movie theater (they were basically really nice office chairs). A waitress comes by before the movie and during previews and takes your order for some decent food (think Friday's or Chili's) at very good prices. We split a large soda, a big chicken quesadilla, and a brownie sundae for $13. Plus we were able to get in for $5.50 each using our now void-but-nobody-knows student I.D.s . We're totally going to another movie there on our way back down the coast!

Yesterday we stopped at Kittery Trading Post to get a couple camping and RV things and some kitchen equipment. I can't believe how big the outlets at Kittery have become. I don't remember so many outlet malls when my family would go to Kittery when I was little. The Trading Post hasn't really changed, though.

We're starting to feel pretty comfortable with the camper, especially after being home for a few days and taking care of a few little things. Today will be our first day in Rockland, and I might be working my first day at Primo tonight. Needless to say, we're pretty excited.

Way to go Wax and Lily! It's very quiet in Waltham. Sometimes nice and quite, sometimes too quiet!
