This time of year is the best time to live in Lincoln County. This is different of course from the best of the summer season, and the best of fall and even the highlights of winter.
In fact, is there ever a bad time to live in Lincoln County?
We expect the alewife run in Damariscotta Mills to start any minute, which we take to be the unofficial arrival of spring, but remarkably, this year the season seems to have started without them.
Before too long high summer will be upon us, and while that season brings a special joy all its own, it is also the time when the population of Maine explodes, the relative peace and quiet recedes and the familiar traffic jams in Wiscasset, Boothbay Harbor, and Damariscotta return.
No, the best of summer doesn’t quite compare to the first heady days of spring.
