My reservation with Lucie and Bernie was my first with Airbnb and they provided me with such a wonderful experience. They have a spacious bathroom and bedroom that is sectioned off from the rest of the house. I loved the rocking chair and blanket in the room that I sat in to read and admire the foliage out the windows. Lucie and Bernie were eager to provide me with helpful information about hiking trails and must see attractions in the area. They also have two wonderful dogs who would always greet me upon arriving back at the house. Their house is located in a lovely quiet neighborhood that felt extremely safe. Thank you both for providing such a wonderful accommodation!
CharlotteNovember 2016Kind gracious hosts, comfortable bed and great bath. Our second visit and all was grand!
BridgetJanuary 2017Great stay! Very large and private bedroom and bathroom. Nice hosts. Quiet area. Couldn't ask for more. Will stay again when in area.
LisaAugust 2016Our stop was brief since it was enroute to Nova Scotia,but we arrived at 7:30 pm and left to get breakfast in town at a place they recommended at 7:30 the next morning. Lucie and Bernie were friendly and the room was clean and comfortable as was their house. It is also very convenient to I-95 which was key for us.
TedOctober 2016Though we did not get to meet Lucie, her husband Bernie was there and was incredibly informative and welcoming to me and my friend. The room was comfortable and private and they had a great list of local food with the smart addition of including the hours of each place as we are in Maine. The house was great, Bernie was very friendly and made me excited about traveling. They are both glass artists and the house is full of great art! They have two cute little dogs as well!
SarahOctober 2016Lucie and Bernie were amazing hosts! Bernie sent me specific directions prior to our arrival along with his telephone number. We were greeted with a warm and friendly welcome as soon as we arrived. The room was very clean, spacious, and private. Bernie had set up waters and cups, and he took the time to make a list of all the restaurant nearby with closing times. Lucie and Bernie are wonderful people. I'm really glad I had a chance to meet and get to know them. I would definitely stay with them again and probably just to hang out haha
StephanieOctober 2016I was looking just for a place to sleep overnight after my son's evening soccer game at Colby College, also in Waterville. I chose Lucie's place because it looked nice, was very affordable, and close to the school. It was all of that and much more! First, thank's to Bernie's directions I found the place with no trouble at all. Second, the room and private bathroom were more private than I anticipated because of how Bernie and Lucie have created the space. It was also as nice, clean, peaceful, and comfortable as others have described. The bottled water, extra key, and all the amenities were special. But the best part was the graciousness of Bernie and Lucie (and their wonderful little dogs, Rudy and Charlotte). They made me feel like I was visiting a friend rather than staying in their extra room. I would definitely go back again, and probably will since soccer season has just started!
VictoriaSeptember 2016Lucie and Bernie are so very kind. They have two lovely puppies. As newly married couple we felt so welcome. The room is clean, private and beautifully decorated with home made glass arts. Bath room is luxury. Great location on the way to Acadia. Bernie actually showed me a few tips about the national park which are very helpful. My wife and I both enjoyed the stay there. We will definitely chose to come back if we go to Bar Harbor again.

Robin's apartment was excellent! Very spacious, cosy, tastefully decorated, and had everything we needed during our stay. We were the first stay post renovations and the place was perfect. Everything was in excellent condition and there was even a Keurig with some Starbucks pods for the morning. I recommend this as a great place to stay for anyone visiting Waterville.
TrishaNovember 2016Lovely home away from home
LizaJanuary 2017This is the second time I've stayed here and will again.
MENGRONGFebruary 2017I had a wonderful stay- everything was just as pictured and the apartment was fully equipped with anything you could possibly need. Robin was easy to communicate with and always responded right away. This was my first Air BnB experience and I couldn't have asked for anything better. I highly recommend Home Away From Home!
MaggieNovember 2016这家住房干净,房间舒适,离小镇中心和购物商场都很近。 Robin温柔体贴,为人友好,慷慨大方。 在她家里我们就像在自己家里一样很放松。 This house was clean, cosey room and a short walk from the downtown and shopping mall. Robin is gentle, thoughtful, friendly, and generous. In her house we were quite at home. Thank you so much! We would certainly staying here again.
MENGRONGJanuary 2017Great home to stay in! Owner was responsive in little time and everything was as said!
SamJanuary 2017Perfection! Gracious Host,Lovely. Property. Property is exactly as shown in photos! Would recommend to everyone! Will certainly book on my next trip to Maine. Thanks Robin
LisaNovember 2016The title says it all! Home away from home is exactly that. The kitchen has everything you could ever need to cook a full meal or just reheat some leftovers. The dishes were nicer than the ones I have at home! The appliances were all new and top quality. The bed was comfortable. The study had plenty of space to work or just read one of the many books she had on hand. The places and things to do pamphlets were a welcome touch as well. Every room is thoughtfully and functionally decorated to make you really feel at home. If you're looking for a place all to yourself then look no further!

This was a great place to stay! It was clean and comfortable. Bobby and Rachel made sure we had everything we needed out went out of their way to accommodate us. We'll definitely try to stay here again when we're in Waterville.
AnnaJanuary 2017My wife and I from Massachusetts and my brother in law from California enjoyed staying at Rachel and Bobby's very much. As others have said, it is clean, comfortable, spacious and very conveniently located. It's only a few minutes walk from downtown Waterville and a 5 minute drive to the excellent Colby College Art Museum which was the main reason for our trip. The gift basket was a nice touch and included coffee beans from their terrific café, Selah Tea, a 10 minute walk away where we had a delicious breakfast one morning. We met Rachel and her children. She is very sweet and answered all of our questions about Waterville restaurants and other things to do there. Our stay was only 2 nights but it is a perfect place for a more extended visit as it has a fully equipped kitchen, dining room and comfortable living room. We'd love to return some day.
Ron and JanNovember 2016Rachel and Bobby were extremely helpful in getting into the space during the first real snow storm of the season. The apartment was elegant and had all those wonderful little touches that made it a real home for the night! Many Thanks for being gracious hosts!
JenJanuary 2017Relaxing stay in this beautiful home. It was conveniently located.
PatriciaOctober 2016The location was great, easy to find. The gift basket with coffee, candy, water and gift cards to restaurants was a very nice way to encourage you to visit local businesses.
JaimeOctober 2016House is great! Had a comfy one night stay. Bobby is very quick to respond and very accommodating for our somewhat last minute stay
timothyAugust 2016We were the first visitors to this listing. Our son was graduating from Colby College and we needed accommodation for commencement weekend. This was the perfect place for our family to stay. It is a charming vintage second floor apartment which was a 5 minute drive to campus and a few- block walk to downtown Waterville. It is located in a safe neighborhood of older homes. The McGees were gracious and accommodating hosts who allowed parking for two vehicles and let us leave one car on-site for additional time on check-out day as we were attending the graduation. There was a separate, easily-accessible entrance for us. The apartment was clean and comfortable with new linens and towels. Our hosts also provided a well-stocked welcome basket ( waters, jams, gift certificates and toiletries) and a variety of special tea blends to try. Very much appreciated! Would stay here again(URL HIDDEN)
NigelMay 2016Really nice place to stay!
KatharinaSeptember 2016房間類型
The room was part of a hotel which surprised me. But it was clean, quiet, and comfortable. I enjoyed their nice pool. It was very convenient to Rt. 95, which was important.
barbaraAugust 2015We had a king bed room for a night. Very spacious w/ vaulted ceiling. A good stay.
BoJuly 2016Large spacious room. Very comfortable bed. Courteous staff. Had a great stay.
JoyceAugust 2015A great night of rest on our way to Fundy National Park! What a surprise this old-school up-cycled hotel was! I love the concept--instead of tearing a place down and rebuilding, just fix up what you have! Room was very nice, as was front desk attendant, and breakfast was appreciated.
AmySeptember 2015we had at a great stay at Fireside. very comfy bed, huge room, great cusromer service. The breakfast is all processed, mostly sugary food (plus fruit) and the coffee was very mediocre, but overall the price for the stay was great.
ElizaAugust 2016This affordable hotel was the perfect pit stop for us on our way from Boston to Acadia. It's super easy to find off of I95 and is near all kinds of stores and restaurants. Check-in/check-out was easy. Whoopie pies at check-in are a nice touch, and are delicious! The room was spacious and clean, and the bed was comfortable.
EbonyAugust 2015My friend and I stayed here as part of a road trip to Acadia, and we loved it! We were so tired when we arrived, and the room was very clean, cozy, and cool from the AC. There was a gas fireplace in the room which we loved. Great experience!
JaneSeptember 2015The woman at the front desk was professional and courteous. There wasn't an elevator, nor was there anyone to help with my one bag. My room was up one flight of stairs. I probably should have asked beforehand, if there were stairs. My room was very nice, with a king size bed. The gas fireplace was awesome as was the massage chair. After driving all day, it was a welcomed addition. I had a very good night's sleep. This is definitely a hotel experience, a nice hotel experience.

Ann was a great host. She was thoughtful and responsive. Her house was clean and perfect for our family. Thank you Ann!!
Sarah July 2016This was the perfect home for a visit to Colby and for graduation weekend. We felt completely at home and welcomed by Ann. The house is lovely, light and comfortable and very close to campus. I highly recommend this for parents weekend, graduation or any other gatherings.
JudithMay 2016Did host make us feel welcome? Ann provided clear directions to the house and about accessing all the amenities of the house. There was a handwritten note to us on the door and a "good luck" wish to our son, who we were there to watch in a baseball tournament at the nearby little fenway park. (10' away) Was the listing accurate? Yes, it was accurate. Nice older '80s era/new home in quiet neighborhood. Plenty of room. Air conditioning not available in two of the sleeping rooms, but the rest of the house was air conditioned. One of the bedrooms was a little stuffy and needed a bit more ventilation. More than enough living/sitting space for all of your needs, with living, dining, formal living, 2 fireplaces, back porch, plenty of bathrooms. What was the neighborhood like? It was a really quiet neighborhood, like 4 blocks from a shopping strip with movie theater, big box store shopping and the like. Downtown Waterville has some charm, but the commercial strip is like everytown's suburban commercial strip. A hospital was also located nearby, but we heard nothing of traffic or medical care noise.
JeremyJune 2015Anne provided us with delicious breakfast foods - fresh breads, yogurt, fruit and excellent coffee. This is something that was unexpected for airbnbs based on my prior experiences.
cherylOctober 2016Ann's house provides very comfortable accommodations in a great location in Waterville
ScottieJanuary 2017Ann is really nice! She prepared everything we needed and her house really gave us a feel of home. The house is also very close to Colby, which makes it really convenient for us to go to school during the day. I would absolutely recommend it to other people!
HarryJanuary 2016Definitely a confort zone that is fully equipped. Ann is nice and so are the neighbors! Would recommend to anyone who is looking for a place to stay in for vacation!
XuningFebruary 2015This is the perfect place to stay for any event at Colby College. It's a five minute drive to campus and the same to Waterville's downtown. Comfortable, homey, spacious -- the house easily accommodates a whole family. Ann was a gracious host -- she made sure we had everything we needed. Recommended.

Wonderful (URL HIDDEN) feels at home here..Churchill is really nice and a very helping person..Rooms are spacious and very clean..Best airbnb ever visited till date.
SwarnimAugust 2016Churchill was a terrific host. He helped us find our way when our GPS broke down, then provided a comfortable home for the night. The house is in a quiet area and our bed was just right. We look forward to staying with Churchill again when we are next in Waterville!
WinslowJuly 2016Churchill's house was great. The bed was super comfy, bathroom spotless with great water pressure. He was away and we weren't sure how late we might arrive but he was terrifically accommodating and made getting in easy. We just spent one night while visiting Colby and it was a good option instead of a chain hotel.
PamelaOctober 2016Staying at Churchill's place was such a pleasure. It was easy to book and convenient for getting everywhere we needed to go (including ice cream). Churchill's hospitality went above and beyond. Would definitely stay again!
SarahJune 2016Churchill was a warm and generous host. We felt like we were received as if recommended by mutual friends and to accept us almost as family. Although we had a room as advertised, we felt the whole house was ours. We hated to leave knowing we might never be back.
PeterAugust 2016I needed a place to crash on short notice, and Churchill got back to me within 20 min. of my booking request and got the room ready for me last minute. Churchill was a welcoming, engaging, gentleman of a host and made me feel like I was staying with a friend rather than someone I'd just met. The house itself was clean and tidy, bed was comfortable, and there were nice little things like chocolates on the bedside table and coffee in the pot for me when I woke up to let myself out the next morning. Next time I'm in the area this will be the first place I look up.
LindsayAugust 2016Churchill was very accommodating. He agreed to host us even though we arrived well after he normally goes to bed. The room was comfortable and well appointed and the whole house was impeccably clean. Though we did not get a chance to meet, all communication was effective and welcoming. Churchill also makes very tasty banana bread. Thank you!
JasonAugust 2016Churchill was a wonderful host. He was very patient with my ever changing schedule! Thank you Churchill!

We went to Waterville for two months for a course in Colby College. We really enjoyed Ayanna's beautiful house. There was all we needed and it was close to everything. It was by a water stream in a quiet quarter. The owner is very kind and accessible. We recommend for sure.
JeremyJuly 2016Wonderful airy home with an nice attentive host! Between the welcome gift, clean home, and fresh Christmas tree we really felt at home and welcomed here for the Holiday! My boyfriend and I travel to Waterville, ME often and will definitely be staying here again!
SarahDecember 2016Our host communicated well and the key was in the lockbox as described. Neighborhood was safe and quiet, close to a number of restaurants and lined with trees. We wanted to live in a residential neighborhood in this town where my husband's family had lived generations ago, to get an authentic experience.
ElisabethAugust 2016Ayanna sent instructions for the key well in advance and it was easy to access. Ayanna responded very quickly to everything. Being city dwellers old houses are not our Forte so we had an adventure finding things and had to contact her a few times and she and her husband were wonderful, accommodating and kind. The kitchen is stunning. The home is cozy. So near our son at Colby. We would love to rent again.
LynneAugust 2016房間類型
Churchill is a most hospitable host. He welcomed us warmly and made us feel completely at home and we thoroughly enjoyed our 3-night stay with him. His house is clean, spacious and in a quiet neighbourhood an easy walk from the town centre. We had a particularly good meal at 'The Proper Pig' which Churchill had recommended. Churchill is a warm, generous and most interesting person who gave us space and time to be on our own but was also available for chatting and conversations.
rachelAugust 2016Quiet neighbourhood, minutes from highway.
GregoryMay 2016Perfect for one or two people visiting nearby areas in Maine. Churchill was very kind and accommodating and was always very personable, always making sure that you have what you need. The room, and the house in general, were very clean and comfortable. The house is in a peaceful suburban area, relatively quiet with just a small amount of traffic and neighborhood sound, but still in close enough proximity to restaurants and shopping centers and is also easily accessible from the interstate. Overall it was a very peaceful and pleasant stay that I would recommend to anyone looking for a place in the area.
DevanandaJuly 2016Churchill was very gracious and the home is immaculate. It was a pleasure to be in Waterville and the stay only made it better.
NirajOctober 2016Very clean, quiet, spacious house in quiet neighborhood. Nice size room. Good size bathroom also. Looked like a shared bathroom since there was a toothbrush on the counter. Churchill was gracious offering refreshments and breakfast in the morning. I recommend this house.
DebJuly 2016An outstanding host with an immaculate house. We couldn't have asked for anything better. Churchill is friendly, gracious, thoughtful, interesting, and funny, too. Anyone who goes there must be sure to take the time to visit with Churchill. Maybe you, too, will be inspired.
Gene and DoriJuly 2016GREAT! I'd highly recommend Churchill's place, he is very kind and welcoming and his house is very beautiful, the room is nice and clean. I'd definitely stay again, Thank you!

I booked Lori and Tony's house for my husband and his crew to travel to Maine for work and they were very accommodating! We booked again 2 weeks later and Lori had freshly baked chocolate chip cookies waiting for the crew when they got there! Everyone was much more comfortable than staying in a hotel and the house is very inviting. Lori and Tony are wonderful hosts!
KaitlinAugust 2016Lori and Tony are diligent and hard working. They are great friends and hosts. They made our trip even more enjoyable! The house is clean and nice. All the appliances are brand new. Location is excellent, two minutes drive or 5 minutes biking to Colby. Neighborhood is nice and quiet. A Colby family is next door, and a Colby professor is across from the street. That's for sure I want to go back whenever I have a chance. Thank you Lori and Tony! Lori和Tony这夫妇勤劳朴实,他们是非常好的房东和朋友!和他们一起这段经历使我们的旅行更加享受。房子干净舒适,所有的电器设备都是新的。地点相当方便,离Colby开车只用两分钟而骑车只要五分钟。房子所在的街区很安静,旁边一家是Colby的家长,对面则是原Colby的教授。如果有机会我一定会再回去!强烈推荐!
DawnchAugust 2016We had a very pleasant experience. Lori and her husband were very hospitable. Unfortunately our arrival got delayed but they were extremely helpful and made it a very smooth process. The neighborhood is really good and the house is very spacious. The amenities were provided as per the listing and we had no problems during our stay. I would definitely recommend this place to my friends.

We had a very good stay at Kimberly's house, the place was very clean and nothing was missing for the comfort of travelers! Very nice experience!
Marjorie et JulienSeptember 2015Kimberly was great. Everything was clean and there were all the things in the house that we could have ossibly needed. Will Definitely be back if my brother picks this school 100% Thanks Kimberly :D
DarianNovember 2015Kimberly's cozy room was just what we needed! A friend and I were planning to camp in Acadia, but torrential rain caused a shift in our plans. We got in touch with Kimberly the day of, and she was able to accommodate us with just a few hours notice. She was helpful and answered all questions we had, and left everything ready for our late arrival. When we arrived she was not there, and another couple was staying there. We felt a tad bit nervous driving up to a dark home at night with another car in the driveway and letting ourselves in- but Kimberly left very clear directions and left everything just so; as soon as we got inside we felt much better. Her instructions were welcoming and thoughtful, and I would gladly stay again!
CatharineOctober 2015Kimberly's home was cozy, welcoming and clean. She had so many nice little touches left around the home for her guests that made the house feel very homey and warm.
JenMay 2016Kim was a fabulous host and the room was better than expected. The bed was upgraded to a queen right before we got there and she opened up her private room for my daughter to sleep in, unexpected and very appreciated. I never actually met Kim face to face, but we messaged frequently and she responded to my questions very quickly. Her place is nice country get away well worth the trip. I wish I had gotten there earlier so I could have seen the countryside on the drive. I would definitely come stay again if we take the same way home next time. My daughter had nothing but nice comments about your house Kim, I hope you got her note. :)
katieAugust 2016Wonderful Airbnb experience! Kimberly was very communicative before our arrival. She let us know that she would not be at the home for our 1-night stay (she doesn't live on the property). No one was renting the second bedroom, so we had the place to ourselves! Very clean, comfortable and everything is labeled for guests. Would absolutely recommend.
Travis & AmandaApril 2016I never met my host but she always answered my emails quite quickly. I really did not end up spending much time there during the day as I was attending a conference that began early each day and lasted well into the night. The lack of air conditioning would be a more serious concern at other times of year but I only had one moderately hot night. The bed was very comfortable. I did not get to use the kitchen much, but it was well stocked with dishes, pots and pans, silverware, etc. Overall it worked well for me.
JosephSeptember 2016Clean cozy comfortable -worked out perfectly -thank you

We stayed only for 1 night at the farm, still enjoyed the hospitality of the family. Especially the farm tour by Jill was really nice. We had tea and juice offered and tasted some of their delicious strawberries! We had 2 bedrooms and a bathroom for our family of 4. One bedroom had a queen bed and the other a full bed + a matrass on the floor for our boy. It worked for that 1 night. The breakfast was DIY, as the whole family was already busy working on the farm at 8am. Fortunately we had some company and help from another guest who was staying there for a few weeks. I would recommend staying there if you like an authentic working farm environment. Magali
MagaliJune 2014Bernie and Jody were very gracious hosts. Bernie called while we were still travelling to make sure we weren't having any issues finding the home, then turned on Christmas lights on the front porch to help locate the house and met us in the driveway when we arrived. Both Bernie and Jody were very friendly and accomodating. They provided us with suggestions of restaurants and other activities based on interests we showed. We loved spending a few minutes each day speaking with them about their farm and family and our plans for the day.
MatthewAugust 2014My stay at Full Circle Farm was wonderful and exceeded expectations. Bernie and Jody are lovely, sparkling, interesting people who immediately make you feel at home. It felt natural to sit on their porch, in their living room, or in the kitchen to chat, or just read while they worked on the stove, on the computer, or outdoors. Two nights at their house and I felt like I had had a vacation of a week or two. It was inspiring to see chickens, rabbits, and vegetable beds so well taken care of. I will definitely try to stay with them again. I only saw my room of the ones that they have for guests (mine was 1st floor in the big house). It had everything I needed with a comfortable bed, a desk, books on shelves, and a bath attached. Because both Bernie and Jody got up before me and are busy in the mornings, the breakfast is simple (in the good sense of the word) and left on the counter. All food at their house is wholesome and tastes superb. Just don't come here and expect suburban satin sheets or muzak. Instead you have something much more heartening: a rustic, charming, old farmhouse run by real, serious, good people. Highly recommended!
ElisabethMay 2015We had a very brief, but nice, stay at the farm. Bernie and Jody were very nice hosts. Bernie greeted us and offered us tea when we arrived (late at night), and Jody made the most amazing sticky buns for breakfast (with squash from the farm in them!). They really were the best I have ever had. In the morning Bernie showed my boys around their farm introducing them to the animals and showing off the huge swing in the barn. I would say this is as genuine Maine/USA as you can get.
MikeNovember 2014Bernie and Joy were very gracious hosts and created a welcoming atmosphere. A fun place to stay.
AdrienneAugust 2016Bernie and Jody (and the whole Welch team) were absolutely incredible. Not only was I welcomed warmly and fed delicious farm fresh meals that were cooked especially for my vegetarian diet, but I got sick while I was there and they treated me like a part of the family. Helping me in every possible way. Then, when I had to cut my stay short, even though I'd already paid for the entire week, they reimbursed me for all of the days that I missed. They are truly amazing hosts and their farm is a beautiful place to relax, meet people (there are farm hands and a farm manager), eat delicious, fresh food, and just get away from it all. Highly recommended!
AbbyAugust 2015We had such a comfortable and memorable stay with Bernie and Jody. They were both very friendly and accommodating. My favorite part was that they had a great porch to listen to the crickets on and two kittens to play with! It was cool to get to walk around the farm and see the little chicks and fruit trees and flowers. Thanks guys!
JosetteAugust 2016House was easy to find and Bernie and Jody were very welcoming. We had a nice chat with their daughter and her friends in the morning, and got to know a bit more about farming in ME. Amenities were as promised, including a simple breakfast with delicious homemade plum jam.

It's hard to depict in a photograph just how lovely this house and the grounds are. It's in a very quiet town not far from Waterville, and it suited our needs perfectly. We were in the area for "Family Weekend" at a nearby music camp, and the only thing available when we tried to find a nearby hotel was a smoking room in a mediocre hotel in Waterville. We were very happy to come back to this beautiful house every day, and were able to accommodate other relatives for the weekend as well.
wendyJuly 2016This house is stunning! The floor plan on the first floor is spacious and was great for entertaining, and even better for a relaxing weekend away from the business of life. The grounds looked beautiful from the window, but since it was cold we opted to take advantage of the fireplaces for cozy night in. Rich left clear instructions so making ourselves at home was a piece of cake. And when we did have questions, he was quick to respond! I would love to stay here again!
LisaDecember 2015Rich was extremely kind, generous, and helpful for our weekend in Maine. His house is absolutely gorgeous and suited our needs extremely well. Rich seems to be very laid back and was extremely good at communication.
EvanOctober 2015Beautiful home with incredible gardens. One of those places you can't do justice with pictures. It was perfect for our 4th of July weekend. Rich was easy to reach and looked after us fully!
Catherine&MarkJuly 2016We had a nice comfortable stay at Rich's house. Everything was clean and tidy with a spacious and well equipped kitchen and a nice green view from the deck in the back of the house.
TasneemMay 2016Hosts were easy to work with, communicative, welcoming, and pleasant Would definitely stay here again! 5 Stars! Pros: Beautiful Home Extensive gardens with small pond and quaint sitting area Large outdoor deck Pretty floral arrangements throughout the house Tons of space for hanging out Bedrooms are large, and beds are comfortable Host provided ample linens, toiletries and a well stocked kitchen (pots, pans, appliances, coffee, etc) Helpful Notes: No AC, but plenty of fans which were very helpful Air mattress is average quality Would be nice to have a patio table to further enjoy the large outdoor deck
CatherineAugust 2015Rich was very responsive and went out of his way to make us feel welcome. The house was great and worked out well for our visit to the Waterville area.
KathleenOctober 2016We can't say enough nice things about this beautiful home. Every day we marveled at the comfort, the colors, the art, the layout of the spaces, how accommodating it was to our family of 7. The big windows through which we watched the snow storm, the tight, warm coziness of the layout, it is a really lovely home. We cooked all our meals there and found the kitchen very user-friendly. We had a movie night where we all watched a movie projected onto their wall with their equipment- super fun. What a nice place. Rich even had it arranged to have the driveway cleared after the big snow. We only hope we were good enough guests that they will allow us to come again if we ever get the chance.

I stayed at Al's charming home while visiting the Colby Art Museum in Waterville, which was an easy drive. Al recommended nearby Hallowell for dinner; I was very happy at the Liberal Cup. He and his partner made me feel welcome and comfortable, even making coffee and baking blueberry muffins for me.
JanetSeptember 2015Al was extremely hospitable and accommodating. The house is in a very rural setting. The only problem I had was my fault--I arrived after dark and couldn't see the sign for the street I was looking for; the sign is on the right side of the street, but one needs to turn left. And I'm one of the few people left without a smartphone and GPS. The house is lovely, the comfortable, with an ensuite bathroom unexpected in such an old house. There are several places to sit and relax, and I was happy to have a chance to converse with Al in the morning. Al's muffins and coffee in the morning was another unexpected treat.
SusanAugust 2016A 5-star rating doesn't do this justice. An unbelievably beautiful home and two wonderful hosts made this the best stay of my recent road trip. Al went out of his way to make sure I was checked in, even to the extent of running late for another engagement. I felt welcome from the moment I got there, and I joked that they would have to kick me out to make me leave. I would go back there for at least two nights - and very well might during "leaf peeping" season.
JohnAugust 2016Al made sure that he would be on site to greet me and truly made me feel that I was a welcome guest. The setting was beautiful- in the country, but only a few minutes' drive to Augusta. The house, the grounds, the pool- just lovely! I felt that I was in my own private retreat, from the elegant bedroom to the delicious breakfast each morning. The host's thoughtful and charming touches made this a complete delight! I look forward to a return visit.
JeanelleJuly 2016Al is a fabulous host and his house is gorgeous! My room was beautiful, and the bed was extremely comfortable. Breakfast was delightful, and I had a perfect stay.
MollyOctober 2014Al was a great host. he made me feel welcomed. Great muffins, banana nut bread. He was very helpful on places and routes to go to Bar Harbor. His home was comfortable and easy to get to. When I come back to that area, I'll will check to see if his home is available again. Thanks Al
JohnOctober 2014This was a very comfortable stay. I was made to feel right at home. I did not get a chance to enjoy the pool but it looked very inviting! The coffee was ready early and the breakfast of fresh fruit and yogurt were just to my liking.
JosephAugust 2016Had an opportunity to stay with Al following my arrival in Maine and it was a wonderful experience. The home is beautiful and Al went out of his way to make certain that I was comfortable and that I felt welcome. Coffee, muffins and fruit were an unexpected treat in the mornings .

What a gem! We were so happy with our experience in China with Fiona & Gary! We had a private suite with sitting area, king sized bed and our own bathroom. The host and hostess were positively delightful and accommodating! We would definitely go back!
JillAugust 2016The host canceled this reservation 6 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.
JohnFiona and Gary are kind and gracious hosts. They were very helpful and friendly and made us feel most welcome without being intrusive. Their lovely home was perfectly situated across the street from the Friends summer camp that our daughter was attending -- perfect location for easy pick-up and drop-off. The accommodations were clean and comfortable and full breakfast was served in a pleasant, sunny dining room. We'll be back!
KaraJuly 2016Fiona and Gary were so welcoming . They made us feel so at home. Beautiful accommodations , beautiful people, and lovely breakfast. Will definitely return again.
CherylAugust 2016We were very late arriving but Gary greated us as if it was no problem. The room was really lovely and the bed so welcoming after a long drive. Breakfast was yummy. I would definitely stay again. Lovely house, lovely hosts, gteat breakfast!
CharlotteSeptember 2016Fiona and Gary were amazing hosts! We chatted with them about our trip through New England and travel in general and they were fun to talk to. They were incredibly helpful on recommendations for dining around. Also, the brunch by Fiona is to die for! The room was spacious and had everything you could need. Would easily stay here again. There's an interesting history about the house as well.
AaronOctober 2016Fiona and Gary's Sugar Maple Cottage is downright perfect for a relaxing getaway. I stayed for a few nights to slow down and unwind from the hustle and bustle of work and city life. And I will say, SMC was perfect. If you want an evening watching the sunset and wait for the fireflies to come out, look no further. If you want to have a lovely room to stay in that will remind you of your grandmothers farm home, look no further. If you want to explore the beautiful small towns of Maine's country side, look no further. Fiona and Gary are a couple of the most friendly people I've had the pleasure to meet. If you want suggested places to visit and some background, Fiona is your lady to ask! I plan on flying back out from Seattle soon to visit!
AddisonJuly 2016Gary and Fiona are some of the kindest, sweetest, most down to earth people I have ever met. They were so fun to talk to and their home was beautiful! Everything was so clean and welcoming and breakfast was delicious. I hope to say with Gary and Fiona again!

My friends and I wanted a classic Maine experience when visiting the area for the wedding. We could not have found a better fit! The house is adorable (exactly as advertised), and Michael had stocked it with thoughtful amenities and freshly made tomato soup! He was extremely clear and expedient in his communication. It was a perfect Labor Day weekend, all due to this lovely home and it's host.
MeghanSeptember 2016This cabin is really something else! First off, the unit is secluded and fully fitted out, the lay-out works perfectly, bathroom and kitchen are really nice and well stocked. Micheal is a very nice and informative host, willing to work with you no matter what. Also, please go down to the lake, especially early mornings, you will not regret it.
MiekeAugust 2015Where do I even begin?! This was the best experience I have had with Airbnb to date! Michael went over and beyond in so many ways I can barely even count. The house was stunning and exceeded our team's needs. Such a pleasant stay and we look forward to booking this home again in the future. Thank you again Michael for EVERYTHING!
AlisonSeptember 2015Michael's lake house was the perfect space for my husband, my mom, my 7 month old daughter and me. He was such a gracious host and met us at the house to show us around. There were flowers on the table and a pot of haddock chowder ready for us when we arrived! That was so appreciated after a long day of travel and it was delicious! The home is beautiful and clearly a labor of love. My husband and I stayed in the basement with the baby while my mom stayed in the loft upstairs. The bed was a full which was hilarious for my 6'4 husband, but it worked. The views in the morning were gorgeous and my husband and I managed to take out the kayaks a few afternoons and explore. So peaceful! My mom and I took day trips to Belfast, Hollowell, Camden and Bar harbor while my husband was at a course at Colby college.... About a 25 min drive. Worked out great! Michael was readily available via text and the Airbnb app and had some good restaurant suggestions. It was a great week and we would absolutely stay again if we ever end back in the central Maine area!
MeganJune 2016My family and I had a wonderful stay at Mike's beautiful home on South China Lake. The view from the house and large deck is tremendous and the home itself is very open, well decorated, and filled with personal touches. While it takes a little effort to climb down the hill to the lake itself, I thoroughly enjoyed both an evening and morning kayak sessions. Wildlife sightings included deer, loons, woodpeckers, and a porcupine who camped out on a branch right off the deck. The master bedroom is large and quite comfortable but I must confess our small children were a little scared of the 2nd bedroom in the basement. Mike has done a good job ensuring it has natural light but you still know you are in a basement. The kids were quite happy opting for the pull out couch in the living room so all was well. The kids also enjoyed the nice, grassy backyard and all the woods to explore. We wished we could have stayed longer and I wish I had time to dive into one of the thousands of books that fill the home. Hopefully, we'll have another chance to stay longer.
brianMay 2014Michael's beautiful post and beam home was the bomb...wonderful location overlooking a lake in the height of a spectacular foliage; great kitchen with everything you would need for delish meals; a wood stove that makes the whole house feel warm and cozy, an awesome shower, and a comfy king sized bed. One of the best surprises was home-made kale soup which was on the stove when we arrived! Even though we were in the middle of lovely woods, the house was 20 minutes away from my daughter's soccer game at Colby College--so this is a great find for visiting parents! Was an excellent weekend in every way, thank you (:
BethOctober 2015This was our second stay at Mike's wonderful house and I am sure it will be not our last one! For us it feels more like a retreat then an average vacation home - the house itself, the nature, the lake the view! Every day kayaking, fishing, listening to the bird chirping and watching hummingbirds. And the last but not least - the absolutely wonderful host! Thanks you Mike and see you next year :)
JulitaAugust 2016We had a wonderful stay here. Michael was very welcoming and quick to respond to emails and texts. The home is gorgeous--an open layout with so much natural light and beautiful views of the pond. Sitting on the adirondack chairs on the deck, looking out on the woods and pond was wonderfully relaxing. The pond was fantastic for kayaking--many islands to paddle to and explore. You can only see a handful of houses while kayaking, and I was the only one on the water. It felt very peaceful and secluded. There is no cleared path from the house to the shore, and it's steep, so be warned if the descent would be difficult for you.

Julie and her husband could not have been more welcoming and accommodating hosts. We stayed for Colby graduation weekend and with their permission, had a celebration dinner for my daughter and her roommates which inluded grilling on the deck and pictures in the back yard. Everyone had a chance to mingle and get to know one another - much nicer than just sitting across from a few people at a restaurant. The gathering was a smashing success and everyone agreed that the comfortable space and the welcome we felt was a huge part of that success. The unit itself, which is attached to the main house, has an open concept full kitchen with living room, complete with a gas fireplace. They kitchen was nicely stocked with basics (sugar, salt, oil etc.) and there were even some snacks and breakfast foods waiting for us (it certainly was nice not to have to run out for milk!) and on the counter, was a lovely bowl of fresh fruit. There were plenty of dishes, glasses, silverware, utensils and even paper goods. The was a one bedroom on the first floor and three more upstairs. They were cozy, with plenty of towels, blankets, etc. We particularly appreciated having a bedroom downstairs as my husband was having mobility and couldn't climb the stairs - the room would be perfect for an elderly grandparent or anyone needing easier access. Internet access was no problem and cell phone coverage (Verizon) was good. Although we didn't spend time at the lake itself, it was right down the road and they had some kayaks available if we had had an opportunity. Julie really seemed to have given serious thought on how best to make her guests stay easy, comfortable and enjoyable. I wish this unit had been available before now - we would have reserved it for every Colby parent's weekend and the whole family along, grandparents and all. It's a straight shot into Waterville and beats the hotel options. Anyone coming to the area would be well served staying there. Thanks Julie! Your hospitality added so much to our graduation weekend experience. We can't thank you enough!
LouiseJune 2016We love staying here. It is a second home. Our oldest son plays football for Colby College so we have been up for games. Julie and Tom had a Maine newspaper article waiting for us that featured our son. What a thoughtful and wonderful gift!
LynneDecember 2016We had awesome experience staying at Julie's home. Tom and Julie are very friendly and they didn't hesitate to help us out at late nights.
SiddarthaSeptember 2016Julie and Tom texted me that day with directions and to let me know they were looking forward to our arrival.They came out to greet us when we arrived and they were all smiles and kindness! The home is exactly as shown in picture and very comfortable. The jacuzzi tub rocks! The grounds are stunning! And when we thought we broke the gas fireplace Tom came over, so gracious and kind, especially when it really worked fine we just weren't patient enough. Julie left us breakfast food in the fridge and her kitchen is very well stocked. We all loved the whimsical sheets that were on the beds - sharks, flamingos, bicycles!
SuzetteSeptember 2016Host was very welcoming and accommodating. The house is exactly like the pictures with a beautiful lake near by. The house was super clean and the fridge was even stocked with milk, oj, eggs, bacon, and bread! If ever in Maine would recommend this Airbnb.
JenniferAugust 2016We absolutely loved our recent stay at Julie and Tom's! The process was smooth and the house was perfect for our weekend meet-up with friends. I was able to host our visiting friends as if we were in our own home, even with our two toddlers in tow. The house was immaculate and spacious and Julie and Tom went out of their way to accommodate all of our needs and make us feel at ease. From the minute you enter, you can tell that they take pride in their home and put a lot of effort into making it welcoming, well-kept, and comfortable. We could not have been happier with our stay.
RebeccaAugust 2016El lugar es precioso, la casa hermosa , los propietarios muy amables . Estuvimos muy felices en familia disfrutando el lugar Todo era como estaba descrito . Creemos que las fotos no reflejan en realidad todo lo que ofrecen los anfitriones Un salon bello , los dormitorios muy completos , la casa totalmente equipada . no faltaba nada . Pasamos dos dias hermosos , nos hubiera gustado quedarnos mas dias pero el tiempo se nos termino Esperamos poder regresar nuevamente pronto
HernanAugust 2016Julie was a great host, very responsive and available whenever I had questions. The refrigerator was stocked with breakfast makings. The house was clean and spacious, with a fully equipped kitchen. China lake is a very short drive and is very pretty and great for swimming and a the China Dine-ah is pretty good.

Tiger Woods Hires Former Bush Press Secretary Ari Fleischer
In an attempt to repair his image, Tiger Woods has brought on Ari Fleischer, the former press secretary to George W. Bush.
Two sources in the golf community have told The [New York] Post that Ari Fleischer, the former presidential advisor to George W. Bush and the man who was brought in to help repair the steroid-shattered image of Mark McGwire, has been huddling with Woods, plotting a strategy for his return to golf — at the Arnold Palmer Invitational starting March 25 at Bay Hill in Orlando, Fla.
"They were in his living room this week going over a strategy for how to handle Bay Hill in two weeks," one source told The Post.

I received my iPhone 5 by delivery this past Friday, Sept 28th after ordering it at 5am first day CST. I immediately slipped it into it's Otter case which I received the same day. Outside of maps everything is working fine except for a yellow tint I have over the screen. There is a big marked difference when I hold it up to my iPhone 4. I plan to visit the Apple store today regarding this. Has anyone else noticed this problem on your new phone? [/IMG]
I am in exactly the same boat. I received my iPhone 5 on 9/28 as well and noticed a yellow tint immediately compared to my 4S. I gave it a couple days to see if it would improve over the weekend, but could not stand it anymore so I went to the Apple store yesterday. It took a while for the Apple Genius to "see the yellow tint", I am not sure if they're pretending not to see it or what, but eventually the Genius had another Genius to come offer an opinion and eventually saw the yellow tint and offered me a replacement. The replacement came out of a white box and I asked if they don't mind me activating it to see if the yellow screen persists. What a surprise, the screen was yellow tinted as well. At this point the Genius was confused as to why all the ones in the Apple store were fine but these ones are yellow tinted, so they asked me to come back another day to see if the issue has improved. As I am almost an hour away from the Apple store, I asked the manager to try one more time. And what do you know, this new one is even worse tinted than the first replacement. At this point I am so disappointed, the Genius goes on to tell me that they won't open anymore boxes because all of the new ones will be like this, apparently he says that the ones in the Apple store are on 24/7 so the screen has a chance to "burn in" or "cure the glue". He then told me to give it a week, leaving it on maximum brightness on a white background overnight to see if it gets better. I am quite disappointed that my whites look yellowish, my blue looks purpleish and my greens look lime neon greenish (ugh). Will update in a couple days to see if it has improved.
It IS NOT glue and it WILL NOT improve, 100%. This is an issue that happens with every launch. A disproportionate amount of yellow screen phones hit the market. The yellow screens are cheaper and easier to manufacture, so to meet demand theres more of them. Wait til end of October and try to do a retail swap (RETAIL not genius) and you'll have a better chance at a clear screen.
Thank you. I am so sick of people saying it's glue, it's not. It will not change over time. Download a solid white background on each phone and set brightness to same level and compare. I had to go through 3 4S's before I got one that wasn't piss colored.
If youve already done a genius swap you are SOL, you can no longer return the phone. A little something they dont mention to you when you get a replacement at the bar. If you have not gotten a replacement phone, you can ask for an exchange. You just return the iPhone, and have them give you a brand new unopened box. You have to do this because all the yellow screen phones that get returned get resurrected as genius phones. The clear screens will be placed in the new retail boxes. You have a chance at a clear screen with a genius phone, but its much lower then retail. Hope this helps.
The reason you have a higher chance of getting a yellowed screen is when they pull the phone out of the bin to be refurbished, 90% of the time they don't or can't see the yellow defect, so the screen portion is not replaced and the cycle repeats itself. Hard to see the yellow unless you have another phone to compare or know what to look for. Some 50 year old light iPhone user may never notice.
Curious about this I recently compared my 4 screen to the display 5 models at an Apple store. I have to say the 5 just looked more warm and WAY more accurate. Still holding off on buying a 5 though..for now anyway.
Because your iPhone can only show excessive blue, you think a warmer color tone that covers 99% RGB looks yellow. http://www.anandtech.com/show/6334/iphone-5-screen-performance
That's kind of stupid. They did not tell me this and I'm using a replacement phone now. I ordered it through AT&T though so I can always just return it to AT&T. I just need to think about what phone to use in the mean time.
At this point, this is false. All genius replacement phones are brand new as not enough time has passed since launch. These phones are not yellow, they are ACCURATE.
Confirmed with a high supervisor at Apple today, the yellowing is caused by the warmer calibration and not like the older displays where it is a defect. I have been through 3 of them and all have the warmer tone.
When looking at a bright snow white background, seeing yellow is a defect. This has happened to a small percentage of iPhones since the 3. Again, where pure white is represented as yellowish nicotine stained color is not accurate by any stretch.
Dont pay attention to that one, Rocko, hes trying to convince himself his phone is fine. He also doesnt get that we are not talking about a slightly warm tone, we are talking about a yellow cast to the entire screen, which is clearly incorrect. "Confirmed with an Apple supervisor" ha. I've confirmed what I've wrote with Tim Cooks executive office.
Okay, here is my new iPhone 5 next to my old iPhone 4 with the same exact screen showing. I took the picture with my new iPad, so all Apple products! Judge for yourself! I also added this to my original post at the top. Sorry for not adding this from the beginning. [/IMG]
You can't go in and use the iPhone 4 as a reference point and demand a new 5. Apple doesn't see the warm tint as a defect. Now if there are patches of yellow and dead pixels that is a different story but you can't just say the screen tint is warmer than the 4 and get a new one. Go to an Apple store and compare it to those floor models, that picture would be more useful.
I've actually done that. It is quite funny, I put mine in between 2 floor models all showing the same image and you can tell mine in the middle is yellow tinted.
In case this is not the usual "drying adhesive" problem (which will go away after a week or so): Maybe Apple finally switched the white point to 6500K, which is quite a bit warmer than what most consumers are used to*. Previous iOS devices had a much colder color temperature, which really showed when you looked at them next to calibrated monitors. Therefore, it may not be a technical problem, just better calibration. Would be interesting to know if this is the case. * A quick note: Most consumer screens, especially with TN panels, have a strong blueish tint by default. Many people are used to it and see it as "normal", but that doesn't make it any better. [edit]: Okay, in that case it's probably not a general calibration thing. May still be drying adhesive.
For what I've read this is an intended thing. This screen should give more natural and accurate colors than previous iPhones. Also the new one-layer screen helps.
Thanks for posting this. It's nice to have reference point and comparison. I think I may have lucked out with a good screen....so far.

Rest in Peace, Paul Walker and Nelson Mandela: Two Angels Up in Heaven
Paul Walker and his Reach out Worldwide teams arrived in Haiti 5 days after the 2010 quake through Dominican Republic. ROWW.org or Reachoutworldwide.wordpress.com is a network of professionals with first responder skill-sets who augment local expertise when natural disasters strike in order to accelerate relief efforts. With the assistance of his best friend, Roger Rodas, a financial planner, Paul founded Reach Out Worldwide after returning from Haiti. Paul Walker and his ROWW members were helping in Oklahoma tornado, Illinois tornadoes, Typhoon Haiyan in the Philippines, and Tuscaloosa in Alabama.
"The Fast and the Furious" Super Star
R.I.P Madiba (Tata) and Paul Walker!. Christo Brand who was the jailer of Nelson Mandela at Robben Island, remembers his friend. He is mourning his death. He said that Mandela who was older than he was became a father figure for him. Mandela encouraged him to complete his education and always cared about asking for his family's health. Both men lost a son. Mandela did not forget about the jailer who gave him bread and his favorite hair pomade after he was released and became President of South Africa. He kept in touch with him and made sure that he was close to him. Christo Brand took his family and grandchildren to see him in his old days. They told each other stories and relaxed.

Here is what others are saying about Paul Walker's Charity and Relief Efforts
Paul Walker and his relief work team in Haiti, five days after 2010 quake.
"Paul wasn't someone who would just write a check and lend his name to an organization; he was the heart and soul of REACH OUT Worldwide. Paul was the first one in and the last one out, he led by example and his hard work and dedication inspired everyone who had the privilege of working with him. He led one of the first teams into the hardest hit areas of Haiti and traveled to Chile to bring water, medical aid and hope after the Earthquake and Tsunami.
"He ran a chainsaw clearing debris and helping people get back into their homes during the hottest days after the tornadoes in Alabama… Some people play a hero, Paul was a hero. Paul was an honorable, hardworking, dedicated, respectful man with a humble spirit who shared his blessings with those who needed it most. It was an honor and a privilege to be able to work with, learn and look up to someone who walked the walk", said JD Dorfman from REACH OUT Worldwide after Walker's death.

I'm very interested with your coupon code and it is very help full to purchase some item. Thank for it. Online Shopping Coupons
ReplyDeleteCS has been super chipper about processing all my PA requests lately. No problems whatsoever. All done over email so I don't have to worry about who I get on the phone.
Also all the sales associates at the Columbus Circle NYC store (my "home" store) have been super friendly and helpful over the past few months. Great customer service!RepliesCass, I love Angela at the Columbus Circle store! She's petite like me and is always honest about what looks good and what doesn't.
DeleteI haven't learned their names yet (need to), but I bring all my returns in there and they are always friendly about it, never a hint of an attitude. They handled a free alteration for me (even though item was sale) and also last night tracked down a completely sold out skirt for me from one of the collection stores and set me up with a charge-send even though the collection store was already closed. :)
DeleteThat's awesome service!! I usually bring my returns in there as well, since this location is easier for me to access during my lunch break. I made sure to buy my Drake's giraffe top from there so that Angela would get the commission.
DeleteIs Angela your official stylist, or do all sales associates get commission?
DeleteTBH, i'm not sure whether all of the stylists receive commission or not. I have a feeling that not all of them do receive commission though. Usually when I'm checking out and the SA asks whether anyone helped me, that SA will look up the stylist name and (I assume) punch in a commission code for them. Angela said she's been with JC for a long time (I want to say over 20 years) and she's there everyday, except Mon & Tues. (unless there is a new rollout). There is another very nice SA there, but I forgot her name.
I love the Ryder pants, the style, the fit, the length.. I have two pairs and they do stretch out differently during the day, but not too bad. I've been looking for similar pants as the colors on mine started to fade (due to machine washing), but have not been able to find good alternatives. I've tried the Minnie, Martie, Maddie but they are either too short, too fitted, or not structured enough, plus size zippers just don't do my tummy any favor (esp when tugging in). Anybody else love the Ryders too and have found good alternatives for them?
ReplyDeleteRepliesYes!! This describes my situation exactly. I own 3 pairs of Ryders; one that totally stretched out, one that's fine, and one that has a weird tear on the seam I haven't fixed yet. A colleague told me about the Old Navy Pixie, believe it or not, and I've been happy with them as a replacement. I haven't had any issues with my black or navy pairs stretching out, and they wash just fine. Oh, and the price is nice :-)
DeleteI have a pair of dark brown Ryders that I had hemmed to 27" & they are GREAT. I don't know what to do when they wear out! (Why are dark brown pants so hard to find?) Like Monica Bonica I am very pro-Pixie as well - wearing a pair today in fact. And yesterday. And the day before. :) They're so cheap but are machine washable, wear well, don't stretch, & come in LOTS of great colors & prints.
DeleteTaylor, I've seen in the past that you are an ON Pixie pant enthusiast. I am too. They are so comfortable, have just the right amount of 2-way stretch and come in great prints at a good price. I do find I need to try multi pairs in the same size as the batch cutting can result in big differences between pants marked with the same size label.
My only problem is in the wet Pacific North West, with ankles too chilly to go sockless, I struggle to style them in winter. In warmer weather I pair them with ballet flats, Martina wedges or Vans without socks. Do you have a winter Pixie styling suggestion - a shoe shape/ look that includes socks?I will definitely try the ON Pixie pants. Thanks for the recommendation ladies!

An Architectural Mix of Old and New
Matt Jones of Struct/Restruct talks about his approach for restoring old homes with a modernist's approach.
oliviaqueenofthelillies 5 years ago
Matt Jones (along with his wife, Heather) is much more than just a restorer of homes. His visual artwork, whether it is sculpture or painting or something else, is also amazing. He's doing great things for Lawrence, and, specifically, East Lawrence.
just_another_bozo_on_this_bus 5 years ago
Sort of ironic that this is preceded by an ad for Paul Davis Restoration (who are pretty much the antithesis of what Struct/Restruct do.)

no kidding. 'Paul "Soak the insurance company" Davis. Terrible over charging of people in distress.

In the Stars
Your Horoscope: Tuesday, May 18, 2010
-Margaret Santangelo
Taurus: You may have a dream about going back to school or furthering your education in some way. Today is the perfect day to work on making that dream a reality. Speak to a loved one, such as your husband, about the possibility this evening.
Gemini: Today you may indulge your rarely-exposed lazy side and stay home. Shirking your responsibilities is not something to make a habit of, but don't beat yourself up for blowing off work. What's done is done.
Cancer: You'll have a hard time making progress at work today. Don't get frustrated; late tonight the moon enters Cancer and vastly improves your productivity. Do something fun this afternoon. You have plenty of time later in the week to wrap up loose ends at work.
Leo: You may be singled out at work for doing an exceptional job on a high-profile project. Make sure you don't forget to acknowledge the help of coworkers with whom you collaborated; someone could feel hurt if you don't. This evening quiet meditation or a yoga class will suit you.
Virgo: Today you need to think about your daily routine – and how you can make yourself more productive. A minute here and a minute there will add up at the end of the day. If you streamline your routine you'll be able to take out much needed time for yourself on a more regular basis.
Libra: Today is the perfect day to deal with financial matters, especially those involving joint or shared resources. Discuss a plan with your husband or perhaps a business partner this afternoon. Wrap up loose ends before you hit the sack.
Scorpio: Today you'll be dealing with issues related to a partnership, either business or personal. Take your time when trying to communicate a complex subject to co-workers or professional associates this afternoon. This evening, the void-of-course moon makes progress difficult.
Sagittarius: Today work is on your mind, especially when something unexpected comes up that you'll have to deal with. This afternoon and evening you'll get along well with friends; perhaps take the evening off and go out and have fun.
Capricorn: Today you'll be especially creative and artistic with the moon's entry into Cancer. Spend the afternoon with the children in your life; go to a museum to see a new exhibit or to the library for a reading.
Aquarius: The moon's entry into Cancer this evening may have your most important relationship front and center in your mind. You could be very worried that your special someone is hiding something from you, this evening, confront him – don't just sit and stew!
Pisces: Today will be a very productive day when it comes to writing or any kind of communication you may engage in. Take the time to express yourself clearly tonight, though, with the moon void-of-course you may have trouble being understood.
Aries: A friend or associate that could get you out of the tight financial spot by introducing you to a new way of making money. This evening, the moon's entry into Cancer gets you in the mood for a quiet evening at home with your family.

News The Virtual Boy's Design Was Influenced By The Fact That Ladies Like Wearing Make-Up
According to creator Gunpei Yokoi
Virtual Reality may be back in favour these days, but back in the mid-'90s the initial burst of interest in the technology was starting to wane, and for many players the straw that broke the camel's back was the much-hyped Nintendo Virtual Boy. Released in 1995 to almost complete consumer apathy, the console lacked...
