May - October (Rain or Shine)
In the desert of course
I was passing through Freeport and I saw signs for THE DESERT OF MAINE. Why wouldn't you stop, right? Well, I had already passed up a topless cafe. It's exactly what you first thought, the Mainers strip off their flannels and serve you flapjacks and coffee. I made time for the Desert, and as luck would have it, it didn't take a whole lot of time. Much to my surprise it was raining in the desert when I arrived. A mirage I thought, but nope, I stood outside and the rain was falling down on me. Next, I looked at the entrance sign; it read "closed." Another mirage, nope, apparently this desert doesn't open until May. This just shows that you should do your homework before heading anywhere. Lucky for me, this stop was on my way.
