Our friends Don and Nancy have shown us the best time in Portland. There is just nothing like touring with the locals. On Friday, we saw the famous and infamous places, the backroads and byways, and heard the stories of who, what, where, when and how, for so many fascinating places.

Lunch was fresh haddock and cole slaw at the counter of the iconic Becky's Diner on the wharf. Don and Nancy are regulars there and know the servers and their life stories, but more impressively, the servers know Don and Nancy. It was old home week when we walked into the place.
We had supper at Don and Nancy's house ... fresh, whole lobsters that we picked up from a local diner and brought back to the house. (Talk about being local, when we stopped to pick up the lobsters, Nancy walked into the back door of the kitchen, where the staff greeted her warmly and were just pulling the lobsters out of the pot as we walked in.)
