Camden International Film Festival 2009
(01 October 2009) - The fifth annual Camden International Film Festival begins today and, as sponsors this year, we couldn't be more excited. Held in venues throughout Camden, Rockport and Rockland, Maine, the festival goes through Sunday 4 October 2009 and brings filmmakers and industry reps the world over to the small coastal haven for an incredibly varied selection of non-fiction films. In addition to the usual stock...
Best Made Co. Axes
(16 July 2009) - by Laura Neilson In May 2009, Peter Buchanan-Smith and Graeme Cameron debuted their marvelously dapper spring collection of Best Made Co. axes. Despite the hirsute woodsman imagery often linked to this simple chopping tool, Best Made's striking heirloom-quality designs are intended to appeal to men, women, urbanites and weekend warriors alike. Tempered and shaped—all by hand—at one of the U.S.'s oldest axe-makers in Maine,...
Grain Surfboards
(02 June 2009) - While sheer beauty of the sloping wooden forms is enough to sell us on Grain Surfboards, their non-traditional approach—skipping the foam makeup of other boards in favor of a Northern White Cedar and air composite—makes a pretty good case for them too.

The list got so long that I had to cut it down to the "Maine bites." My first stop was for a "Maine Quarter Pounder" at Bayley's Lobster Pound where one of the...
Lenny
(14 April 2006) - On a recent trip to Maine I came a across a full grown moose in his natural habitat. He was not standing in a grove of pine trees where you might expect; instead, he was wading in a pond of white chocolate tinted with blue food coloring at Len Libby Candies Shop. Weighing in at 1,700 pounds, Lenny, as the locals call him, is...
Gym Dandies Children's Circus
(13 April 2006) - Where on earth do six-foot unicycles, flying lacrosse balls, intermediate/middle school age students, and the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade have anything in common? You'll never guess...on the rocky coast of Scarborough, Maine, the home of the Gym Dandies Children's Circus. Founded in 1981 with a box of tennis balls and a handful of 5th and 6th grade students by physical education teacher Jon Cahill...
