Never mind that we can barely spell the name… we still want to eat up everything in their store. Have no fear if you also can’t make it out to K-town. Spaces Kennebunkport has an awesome

MAINE ME
I’ve been to Kennebunkport – it’s stunning and special and totally worth a trip.
I’m originally from Saginaw (TX not MI). It’s an Indian word meaning between the grain elevator and the railroad tracks.

Maine me…I live in Illinois, and there is a town called Effingham about 45 minutes south of here. It’s kind of funny to say because no one knows if you are fake swearing or saying a city’s name. My Little Sis is 15 and she loves it.
