I spit my coffee laughing at “ancient family feuds!” That is a popular past time in Maine. My grandmother enjoyed her several feuds that lasted at least 50 years 😆

Lol, we moved here because we like the area, we like to live rural, and we generally like to be left alone but omg. The weird inter family histories and feuds and Facebook wars drive me up the wall and make it so I never want to talk to anyone in this town. You haven't lived until you've experienced the Christmas decoration debacle of March 2022. (Someone undecorated the town gazebo because the decorations were still up in March and then THREW THEM OUT!!! the horror!! Said townsperson was crucified on social media for doing what our town apparently could not for 3 months. I still dont think the poor townsperson is allowed back in the town facebook group)

March must be the breaking point for people! The same grandmother I mentioned gave people until March to get their Christmas wreath off the door. We would be in the car and she would point out how “Marian” hasn’t bothered to take her wreath down yet. And it wasn’t unheard of for her to make anonymous calls to such people to give unwanted advice 😆
