Thread Name: Shanty Party in Portland, Maine
Subject: RE: Shanty Party in Portland, Maine
Last I knew, you'd be coming South on Commercial St. from Franklin, the junction being near the ferry terminal. Dana would then be on your Right, just past DiMillo's on the opposite (landward) side. It's a little cobblestone street that pitches uphill from Commercial. I am planning to park, if parking is not to be found on the street (as it oft is not), at DiMillos Lot which is within easy walking distance. It might cost a buck or two depending on how long one stays, but shouldn't be all that bad. If it snows enough for Portland to declare a "snow emergency", anyone who tries to park anywhere gets towed off to the impoundment lot where the ransom is high to redeem one's ride. We hope, of course, that the weather is cooperative.

I'll be interested to hear if Kendall knows any chanteys, "real" or domesticated, that Cpt. Steve does not... or vis versa! Leave the little innocents with Granma, Moms & Daddys... or deal with the Teacher's frantic call about what little Buffy and Ryan are singing about the playground next week!
