You know, except for the years I was in the war, I spent time in Maine every summer, as long as I can remember. It's still the one place our whole family comes together. And you just can't think of Maine without thinking about the wonderful people in the ocean, lakes and streams. Fishing, boating, the spirit of the sea. Maine is dedicated to its waters. So when I say I'm dedicated to the environment, I'm thinking of the specialness of Maine. Maine.
