Freeport, Maine
Welcome to Freeport
Bow Market – a cute little grocery store in town
Sailing motto
Freeport sits on the coast of Maine and is a small town of about 8,000 people. It offers a number of outlet stores, is home to LL Bean flagship store (open 24/7 365 days a year), has a host of restaurants, a state park, and Wolfe’s Neck Center.
Who can resist a day of shopping at outlets (my husband for one)?

Yarmouth, Maine
Yarmouth is just to the south of Freeport and is home to Garmin who houses Delorme’s Eartha, the world’s largest rotating globe. It was fascinating!
