For those of you not lucky enough to live in my beautiful state, here’s a peek at what you might see on any given day.
.

.
Lobster. It’s everywhere.
Even at the gas station.
When you live on an island like I did, you party near the water on beaches, near the water on piers, and sometimes…
.

.
On the water itself.
.

.
These are pictures from a friend of mine who’s in a local band.
.

.
The concert was staged on a float….
.

.
Which means concert goers had to float as well.
And finally… I doubt there’s anything more iconic about Maine than a traditional lobster bake. If you’ve never attended one, you should. There’s nothing quite like it.
.

.
The food… lobster, clams, potatoes, corn, onions and eggs are all covered with seaweed and burlap and set to steam over a wood fire.
.

.
Clams and potatoes are wrapped in tinfoil.
.

.
It’s a slow process but well worth the wait.
.

.
Just don’t forget the butter.
.

If I went to one of those, I wouldn’t eat for a week before…

There is a floater who looks naked. 😁 The food looks divine.

I don’t believe there were any naked floaters, but I doubt there was a dress code.

I grew up eating pig that had been wrapped in banana leaves, buried, and smoked, so I could definitely get behind a good ol’-fashioned Maine lobster bake!
