If you love a yard sale, you will want to stop by The Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. The SPCA of Hancock County is located in Trenton this weekend for a 3-day sale. The hours are 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. each day of the weekend. All items are displayed under tents.  All the money raised goes directly to the care of  all the SPCA's resident dogs and cats.  Find info here

The shelter is still in need of item donations in order to make this the best fundraiser possible for the animals. Donations can be dropped off at the shelter. All is needed except clothing.

The General Stores Of Downeast Maine

These are the long-time general stores that are spread throughout downeast Maine. The stores that your grandparents picked up milk, beer, and that night's dinner at. For years they had been filled with things like fly paper, clothes, beef jerky, and that morning's newspaper. Now, you stop by for that slice of breakfast pizza, a tasty fried chicken sandwich for lunch, gas,and a handful of lottery tickets.


They're an important part of Maine's heritage, and their numbers are starting to dwindle. But we still frequent them to pick up the day's necessities and to keep up on town gossip.


They may not be owned by the original owners, and they may not look the same as they did years and years ago. But that same hometown feeling is there, the minute you set foot on their wooden floors. More than likely the same wooden floors that your grandparents set foot on.
