Default Rockland ME RVers?

I will be vacationing in Port Clyde ME next week and I was wondering if there are any RVers ; builders or flyers local to the area.

Roman Majunka (sorry if I spelled your lat name wrong, Roman!) has his RV-8A at KRKD. There are two RV-9s at KBST, and two RV-8s at KIWI (including yours truly)...

How long are you gonna be around?

Hey Hairball!!

What do you know about the Lobster Fest? Thinking about coming up there for a weekend trip. Would be great to meet some RVers while the wife and I were up there as well.

We have gone to the Rockland Lobster Festival a couple of times. It's small and they charge to get in. Not a whole lot to see IMHO but YMMV. You can't beat a trip to Maine for ANY reason though! Maine Lobster's are hoovering around $4.00 a pound direct from the trucks for soft shells so bring a cooler to take some home.

Hey Tony,

Never been to the Lobster Festival, although I hear Mary Tyler Moore goes every year, buys a bunch of 'em and releases 'em back into the wild. It's a knee-slapper for the lobstermen...

Now if you want to have some fun, come to Wiscasset (KIWI - Small Flightless Bird). We drink beer (home-made and good), play music (home-made and not so much), and we'll have some warbirds on the field (the Texas Flying Legends stay here from July through October - http://www.flyingfreedom.us/).

You want some sea-bugs? We'll cook 'em ourselves...You'll miss Mary though...

Sea-bugs...tempting! .

Maine might be the spot! I did 4 seasons up at Loring AFB and would love to fly around/over that area. Perhaps even land... What's up there now? Is the snow gone yet?

Nick,
We are here until Saturday am. Been enjoying the great weather.
We picked a good week to escape the hazy hot and humid back home in Pa
