We went to the Saco Museum last weekend too. It was great!

This is a detail of a painting by John Brewster, a painter working in Maine in the early 19th Century. I’m familiar with folk art from that period, but not Brewster, and his paintings in the museum are fantastic.

Here’s a link to Brewster’s Wikipedia entry:

We went to the Seashore Trolley Museum last weekend. It was fantastic! The Metrobus was in the parking lot, and because I’ve ridden a couple of these in my youth I had to take a picture. No Metro rail cars.

The building behind the bus is part of the superstructure of the elevated that used to be over Causeway Street in Boston. It was partially dismantled and floated up to Maine on a barge.

I don’t know if the Metrobus was put on a barge, but I’ve got nice mental images of it on a barge in the Atlantic and also driving up I-95.
