That’s because Spaces Kennebunkport– the shop behind today’s prize- embodies just the type of comfortable seaside home accents that Sherry and I love. 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 No Name Colorado.

Maine Me!
Saskatchewan, Canada where I grew up has lots of strange city names. Some of them come from old Indian names. Regina, SK was originally called “Pile of Bones,” SK. Then there is Moose Jaw, Southey, Swift Current and Saskatoon. Then in Alberta there is the city of Medicine Hat.
