As promised, yesterday was an Ellen-centered day with a Stephen King tour around his hometown of Bangors, Maine. We learned lots of Stephen King trivia, including the fact that he owns a local radio station because it was going off the air and he didn't want the town's only rock station to be cancelled.
We were so thrilled that there was a clown on the side of the van...
One of our stops was Stephen King's actual house! Ellen was really hoping he'd be home so she could ask him what kind of tree he would be. Notice the spiders and bats in the wrought-iron fence.
Apparently this was a scene in "It" that she's re-enacting?
After the tour, we asked our guide what he recommended for lunch. He told us to go to a truck stop, which is known for its blueberry pie. Oh goodness- we are our weight in pie! Only Mom and I were in the "ate the whole piece" club. We must be the only ones with working dessert stomachs.
This morning, we'll be worshipping with the church in Boston we visited when we travelled here 15 years ago. Mom said she's sneaking in an itty bitty museum...
