None of those things by themselves are super concerning but all together might be a bit much for providers in the county. How old is the daughter?

She makes multiple go fund me accounts constantly then never shows the receipts or if the people got the money. She also raised a lot of money for a lawyer to sue a police officer then dropped the charges and kept the money

Wrinkle In Thyme up in Sumner used to be part of that program. They might still be; I don't get up there as often as I used to.

Like all extremely rural areas, there are no large hospitals and doctors are scarce. If I had a child with serious medical needs, Aroostook would be the last place in Maine I’d want to be.

I mean, prices in other areas are 5X more right now, so I believe you.

I just switched from Geico to Progressive, my first six month policy mentions a "new policyholder discount" so, yeah, switcharoo.

People don’t realize that Hawaii is not all paradise for the people who love there.

Really? Please elaborate. I find everything outside of Manchester to be quite nice.

I just realized I like this map so much not because of who did good, but who did bad. Suck it Mass!!!… and CT, RI, NJ, and CA… Man I need to learn to be nice again.

Yeah there’s some head scratchers, but ME, MN, and NH are better to live than heavily populated and regulated places like Cali or Mass.

Yeah I agree. But in general, for me, it’s nice to see Maine, Minnesota, Alaska and some other slept on cold states get higher marks than California. It’s hard to breathe without getting trampled on by people or politicians in Cali. Personal experience.

Yeah we were super loyal and there often - and then went several times after new ownership and it was disappointing. Maybe they got their act together! Will have to try again.

Honestly, it's taken 15 years for me to get to the point where I'm comfortable enough with the quality to take pictures.
I should have some pieces done in a couple weeks, I'll post them here when I do.

Tasted great to us and have been there numerous times over the years.

I feel like it’s not as good as it used to be with the new ownership.

Quality of reporting on BDN is better IMO. PPH feels dumbed down.
