No Place Like New

In our Final For Now episode, we share about one of the coolest little places in Maine, Sunday fun-times, and the latest update on our life: ducks, fruits, home renovations, Jack sports and future goals. Maybe we will release more episodes in the future....maybe we won't. What we will do, for certain, is focus more time on being present in this little life we chose and finding a greater work/life/adventure balance. Thanks to all of you who have listened in over the last year. It's been a fun ride.

Rockland's Lobster Festival is a Maine experience on steroids! Lobsters (of course). Seafood. Parades. Ocean View. Pirates. Military Sea Vessel. Sailboats. Eclectic Vendors. Lobster Crate Races and more! Best of all....it's FREE! You can certainly make tons of new and interesting memories on the coast for as little or as much as you want to spend. We highly recommend visiting Rockland, Maine during this fun-filled annual event! Find details online at mainelobsterfestival.com.

PaPa made his first big trip from Texas to Maine and we packed as much adventure into our schedule as humanly possible: 7 towns in 5 days ain't too shabby, especially when you're dragging a 6 year old along for the ride. Listen in to hear all about our explorations of some of Maine's really cool, but not so talked about places.

Zach, Brittney & Jack share their advice after moving from Texas to Maine one year ago. Learn how to plan, prepare and ride the rollercoaster of change. Even if you aren't planning to move just yet.... or ever.... there's a few life lessons in here for everyone.

It's our 1 year NPLN Podcast anniversary! We appreciate all of our listeners who have followed our journey for the last 12 months. We have learned so much, worn ourselves out and had some great new adventures along the way. Listen in to hear Jack Attack share silly tidbits of his life, what we've learned and where we are.

Spring is inspiring more outside than inside projects around the homestead. If we can get even half of the list accomplished by this Fall we'll consider it a win. From ongoing downstairs renovations to big upcoming land projects we will certainly be busy.

Spring has sprung and we are mud deep in planting, replanting, tree trimming, veggie gardening and dreaming up more unnecessary projects to pack into our days. Zach tests Brittney's knowledge on Cinco de Mayo history; and we wish all mother's out there a very Happy Mother's Day.

We've lived 9 months in this house with a gutted kitchen. On this episode, we'll tell you about the latest renovation and homestead updates, the duck plans and Maine Spring surprises.

Our first Easter away from family is upon us, and while we are going to miss those traditions we set forth on making new ones together. We share a little history about how the easter bunny came to be and a new things going on in our life. Happy Easter!

Ah, Bangor. The Queen City of Maine. The Lumber Capital of the World. The home of Stephen King. With a population of only 32,000ish people, this place has a lot to celebrate! From local downtown festivals to big name waterfront concerts. It's definitely worth the stop.
