Look around! The trees are changing color and it is time to get out and enjoy the weather and the beauty of “Vacationland.” This weekend is the “Great Maine Outdoor Weekend”! Most of the events are free or for a donation. It is going on all around the state of Maine.

They've become the biggest moneymakers for motels and restaurants! People, literally, come to Maine by the bus loads to see the fall colors. Fall is also the time of year that a lot of the cruise ships come to the state.
