14 minutes with Scott Kelby and Joe McNally

The Maine Event – Day Three

So here we are, Day Three. I haven’t found a better WordPress app so I’m stuck with the eponymous app and hoping I don’t touch the wrong place on the screen and lose everything again.. I’ve set the auto save to every minute so we’ll see how that goes. Overnight it rained. Bar Harbor was pretty near dead, storefront after storefront posting signs reading “Closed for the Season. See you in May”. Well er, no, you won’t.[ad name=”post”] I headed […]
