Today I went to the Maine Mall. There were hardly any people there. Ha! Actually, I think there were hardly any people in the state that were NOT there!
I got to the Mall shortly before 1:00. I was concerned about finding a parking space but happened to come across a pretty good one. I even backed into it. (I am my father's daughter.)
I didn't have a lot to purchase, but I was still there quite a while. I'm not a great shopper when it comes to clothes, but I do enjoy poking around in bookstores, gift shops, novelty stores, and the like.
I saw Santa! Several tracks of model trains are on display where the kids get photos taken with the big guy. A very festive atmosphere, indeed.
I ate a late lunch at the food court. I had a hamburger, cheese fries, and root beer. My hamburger was FREE!
When I finally headed home, the traffic in the Mall area was outrageously busy. I had to wait at many lights -- some more than once -- before I finally emerged from the mess.
I do not plan on going to the Maine Mall again until after Christmas!
(Postscript: Regarding my free burger....Lew ate at the Mall early last week, and he won a hamburger. He gave the ticket to me. Kind of makes me feel slightly guilty about yesterday's fudge. Slightly. Kind of.)

Did you get the burger from Johnny Rockets? I am typically the snobby health food sort, but I have a soft-spot for that place. They do a surprisingly good job for what it is.
Yes! I couldn't remember the name of the place, but that is it. Thanks!
