About me:
Experience Maine’s rich seafaring history on the banks of the Kennebec River at Maine Maritime Museum. From watercraft and lobstering, to shipbuilding and sea trade, you’ll hear stories about dangerous voyages to distant lands, see how a shipbuilder’s family lived in the 1890s, smell the sawdust from historic ship timbers, and discover the wonders and mysteries of Maine’s maritime culture. Visitors can find: fascinating exhibits brimming with art and artifacts; contemporary, interactive areas for children and adults, an historic shipyard with five of the original 19th century buildings, a Victorian-era shipyard owners home, an active waterfront, a life-size sculptural representation of the largest wooden sailing vessel ever built all on a scenic, waterfront campus.
Who I'd like to meet: Whether you're a hardcore maritime history enthusiast, visiting Maine on vacation, or a local who happens to drive by we'd love to see you!
If you're looking for unique reading material for children, check out my latest book "Abby the Sheep"! It's the Nativity story told through the eyes of the animals. I also have my historical fiction series entitled The Land Of... Series for those who enjoy early Americana and the Wild West. Autographed copies are available through my artist myspace or shoutlife pages, so stop by and check out my books and music.
May this year be full of joy and peace for you and your family. Remember to keep your eyes on the prize, Jesus Christ, and may the Lord bless you in all you do.

Hi There, Thanks so much for the add!!! I once went to your Mueseum back in 2002, I remember. I went the last time I was at Old Orchard Beach in Southern Maine. Have you been there? It's right below Portland. Anyway, I remember I asked your employees if any of the ships that you made were sunk by German U-Boats during the Two World Wars. My reply was that they did not know about World War II, but they did lose ships during World War I. Anyway, once again, thanks so much for the add, and I hope to talk to you and visit you guys again sometime. I love Maine, it's almost as good as being home in Canada!!!
