I first spotted this story at Bev Vincents website. Edgar Allen Beem has a neat article in Downeast. He asks notable residents to share their observations about Maine. Yes, one of them was Stephen King.
.
King says:
"BangorMy idea of the real Maine is lunch at Rosie’s Diner in Lovell. Especially in the fall, after the summer folks go home. Grab a copy of the local paper (the Bridgton News), sit at the counter, and order the blueberry pancakes (with real maple syrup). Bacon on the side’s optional. The cook wears a Red Sox hat, there’s a picture of Elvis over the specials board,and the locals talk politics and football while the leaves fall outside. If you like, when you finish your lunch, you can stroll across to the public library. Not bad."

There's a lot of great contributions to this article that you should check out. I enjoyed all of it.
