    This is a watercolor painting of the town of Fort Kent. I am an artist living in Bangor, Maine. I was wondering if you could use it as a picture in any of your issues. I come from a family of 11 counting mom and dad and we are all from Fort Kent and proud of our hometown. www.pinetreeart.etsy.com

    We experience dog sledding with Ed and Marion Lugdon. My daughter and I had a wonderful time on Wednesday Feb 18, 2009 at their place. We really enjoyed the dog sledding, even though I fell once and my daughter made it without falling we had a blast. They were knowledgeable on the sport, which made it easy for us to pick up the commands. They made us feel like family when they invited us to share lunch with their Family. We had fun making new trails…
