FWIW I tried skiing first and couldn’t get the hang of it. Granted I didn’t have a proper lesson. First time out snowboarding (without a lesson) I could make it down the mountain. I picked it up faster and a proper lesson helped a lot.

Lost Valley is a nice hill. Camden is good too.

I’m not on here to talk about the traffic issue, I will though mention how I think it’s crazy to me that they moved the Fire Station there, seems a little to…busy.

I moved from northern Minnesota to Maine 5 years ago, the winters there are brutal, with frequent and consecutive below 0 temps such as these. It hurts to smile, talk and breathe. Sometimes you'll choke on the cold, you'll stop feeling your nose in a few minutes and snotcicles will form. If you have a beard you'll get condensation frost around you nose and mouth. You can toss boiling water in the air and it will Instantly turn to fog. I love Maine winters, but will always and forever hate this depth of cold. Stay warm friend.
