I've been going to Maine since I was a pre-teen with my parents. I went with them, I went with my wife and family and I went by myself a number of times. That coastline was instrumental in helping me make life changing decisions when necessary. I'd walk the beach and make an attempt to figure out what I needed to do next. I found myself there many times proceeding my decision to move to NC, which was also decided there. This time, nothing to figure out, except where to eat next. Can't walk the shore now anyway, but I can look at it. I could do that here in NC too, but without the memories.
