I've been to Bah Hahbah. I LOVED IT! Can I go, too? Please? Please? One of my Dream Towns.

I can be within an hours drive if you can be within an hours drive...

LabRat, do you know they have a huge lab rat breeding facility in Bar Harbor? Are you planning to spring your brethren free?

March in Maine is still winter.

Small town. Very touristy. Beautiful. Should be quiet in March. You'll need to go to Acadia since it's right there.

I used to work with a woman who's dad was one of the head honchos at Jackson Labs.

I never knew (growing up in Maine) that Jackson Labs existed until they had a fire there, and it was on the news that millions? of mice died in the fire. I was all like WTF?

Pretty scenery. That's about it. But it's a lot.

You'll want to drive all around Acadia National Park. It's all rocky coast. Lighthouses. Very pretty. Hardcore people get up to watch the sunrise over the ocean from the top of Mt. Cadillac (you can drive up it.) The town is pretty small. You can do a whale watch.

Too bad the conference isn't in July.

There's a mouse colony management conference that my bosses want to send me to there.

I need to check that I can get away from the fam for the 4-5 days.

Looking forward to going if I can.
