‘Naked and Afraid’ Lawsuit Settled in Kennebec County

First of all, the image that goes with this story is a stock photo and not an actual picture of Danielle Beauchemin. Kennebec County’s insurance pool has paid $175,000 to settle a federal lawsuit filed by a former county employee who accused her supervisor of accessing nude photos of her and alleged that county officials retaliated against her after she reported it.

This 1800s Maine Bank Is Now A Bakery With Homemade Lunches And Beautiful Cakes

The old bank vaults now keep cake ingredients cold instead of guarding cash. Honestly, I can’t think of a better promotion for a vault. This building dates back to around 1864. Today, it holds glass cases of eclairs, cream horns, whoopie pies, and fresh breads. Original safety deposit boxes still hang around like they never got the memo.

This Nearly 30-Mile Maine Trail Passes Through Remote Forests, Farmland And Historic Railroad Country

Wooden stakes from fish traps built about 3,000 years ago turned up in a lake beside this trail in the 1990s. That one caught me by surprise. The path itself is much younger. Trains started rolling along this route in 1868, hauling goods through central Maine. Today the rails are gone, and the old railbed stretches nearly 30 miles between two small towns.

This Maine Yarn Shop Has Hundreds Of Choices You Won’t Find At Your Average Craft Store

More than 600 different yarns sit under one roof at this family-run shop. That number made me do a double take. Most big craft chains can’t come close. The shelves go well beyond the usual suspects. Malabrigo, Cascade, and Berroco share space with yarns spun and dyed right here in Maine. I like how local fiber farms get real shelf space next to the famous names.
