I do not get to visit the areas of my youth as much as i wish.But i do stop at Bollies for dog and fries.Them dogs are still good ,not as good as before Jordens started making them or who ever but still good.But lived in Pittston and staying at Bakers landing it sure was nice to still get great fried clams at Browines.And a great find was that they now do breakfast.It was realy good,better than most.And good product and done right.I make it back about every two years and when i do i go fer clams at Browines before before family, and i stop at Bollies for the dog.I forgot the name but think it started with an S the last street you can take a right and faces the flats In Wiscaset.They have a soup and salad bar god i forgot how good fish chowder can be.I know its because its made with fresh haddok ,i do not see that often where i live.

Bolley’s doughnuts are the best around this area. If in the Caribou area there is a small market located on route 161 (Oulette’s) They have several different flavors of homemade donuts, made right there on the premesis. Also, several other sweet homemade delights. Check it out if in that area. You won’t be sorry.

Comment on “VOICES” of Central Maine? Why “Voices” rather than “Voice”? by Jean-Marie

Found your site via the KJ. I think this has a lot of potential. I would like to make one suggestion however…The photo used at the top of the page shows 3 “Do Not Enter” signs which sends a certain (not subliminal) message to our visitors and perhaps a more welcoming view could be used.
That’s my two cents.
I look forward to watching this site grow, it’s a great idea.

Comment on The TILBURY CHRONICLES #1 - Tilbury Defined by Dorothy Washburne

Sorry to disagree with you…..and while it is true that, sometimes, when EAR was asked where Tilbury Town was, he would reply that it was any small New England town. However,in Richard Cary’s book, “Uncollected Poems and Prose of Edwin Arlington Robinson, pg 146, Robinson states that”(Gardiner, Maine) may be responsible, in a shadowy way, for Tilbuy Town.

I’ve never tried a Bolley’s doughnut, but after reading this I just might give them a try……especially the Grnalies. D/

Nice to see that this is now listed on page 1 of Google. A good opportunity for people to learn more about EAR’s life in Gardiner. He did have a VERY interesting life.
