MeFi IRL

I'm vacationing in Maine and would like to meet the locals! [more inside]

Ok well that election was a shitshow. Anyone in the Portland/Southern Maine area want to get together December 10th and have a lowkey cheerup chat/snack? [more inside]

I know this is ridiculously last-minute, but I'll be at a loose end in Portland, Maine this Friday. [more inside]

By my calculations it's been more than a year since the last Portland, ME meetup. I see Askme questions all the time about our fair city with copious and quality answering, so why not? [more inside]

Hi! We'll be meeting up (some of us for the first time in Portland!) at Great Lost Bear on Saturday, 10/4, at 4 pm. We'll be bringing our one-year-old daughter, and hope you'll bring your young kids as well! (Of course you're welcome to bring your old kids but they probably don't want to be seen with the likes of us.) Food, beer, whatever...it's going to be superb.

I'm going to try and get to Maine on the last day of my New England Vacation trip with my grandson. Any meetup takers? I suggesting next Thursday or Friday the 21st or 22nd of August. Ideas? I've updated it to the Great Lost Bear on Friday. Changes are still possible, but I'll be on the road after tomorrow.

SO and I are in Maine til the 13th of July and we wanna meet Maine Mefites. Let's all eat BBQ at SALVAGE in PORTLAND on the 6th Of July at 2PM

Good lord, I seem to have up and moved cross-country to a place where I know only one person! Help me feel like this was a good decision by meeting up with me and showing me what awesome folks Maine Mefites are. Anything West End or Old Port works for me, I know a few places for drinks/dinner but would love to try someplace new. I'm going to toss out Jan 23-26 as open days just to get things started. Edit: we've settled on Saturday 2/1, daytime.

Eideteker is blowing into town from The Big City. He'll be here from Wednesday, August 28 through Monday, September 2. Anybody for meeting up on one of those days? [more inside]

Husband and myself will be visiting Down-east Maine for a the week starting on the 18th (we'll be near Augusta, in a cabin in the woods, but we're okay with visiting Portland and the like.) We would like to meet up with Maine/New England Mefites and also get tips/suggestions/recs on "Spooky New England" stuff, mystery spots, haunted houses, tourist traps, roadside attractions, fun fairs, etc. Let's all meet and talk!

Argh, have to cancel; the timing of my plans has changed. Sorry :( Please let me know if I should delete this post.

At least a few MeFites will be showing up for the Gentlemen of the Road concert August 4th in Portland, Maine. Who will be there? Post your info here!

Mr. MonDieu and I are renewing our wedding vows this Saturday, June 9, 2012, at our house in Monmouth, Maine. You are all invited, Open House. Details after the break... [more inside]

Join us to test your mettle at Wednesday's trivia night! April 11th, starting at 7:00 pm in the upstairs bar at Brian Boru's. [more inside]

Hey, I'm coming to Portland, ME (the best Portland), and I want to have brunch with you! [more inside]

Me and my soon to be wife will be in Portland, ME at the end of our honeymoon, and it'd be great to meetup with a few people on Thursday 13th October. [more inside]

Altolinguistic and her husband are flying across the Atlantic soon and will be visiting me on Mount Desert Island. A quick perusal reveals that there are a number of mefites in the area, so I thought a Down East meetup would be in order. They'll be in town most of next week, and besides a how-to-eat-lobster indoctrination nothing else is on the docket, so we're flexible as to where and when. I am away from email until Sunday (hopefully I'll be atop Katahdin in a few days) but maybe others could chime in with date and location suggestions. We live in Somesville but are open to going anywhere on the island.

(The Rt Hon.) MP and I are coming to Portland this weekend, and would love to meet up with Portlanders on Sunday, May 1 before we leave around two-ish. Shall we do lunch, Portland?

Northern New Englanders care to gather in The Big City of Portland? I'm thinking perhaps the weekend of April 17th, but the calendar's wide open, as is the choice of venue -- I don't live in Portland, so somebody else can make an executive decision on that.
