Tbh it was a good atmosphere altogether

Thanks to the excellent work of Dexter, these birds are safe, reunited, and with an excellent forever home.

Proud of the community for coming together to save these in the nick of time!

Taking over a closed-off section of Exchange Street between Middle and Fore Streets, the 2nd annual block party will bring together skateboarding, live art, vintage clothing vendors, and plenty of action in the heart of the Old Port.

This year, the stakes are even higher with $5,000 in cash prizes, up from $3,000 last year, thanks to Town & Country Federal Credit Union, on the line through special trick contests and other surprises throughout the day. The event will feature some major names from the skateboarding world, including Red Bull, New Balance Numeric, Oakley, Huf, Dime Montreal, and more.

Beyond the skating, attendees can check out live art exhibitions and shop a lineup of vintage clothing vendors throughout the afternoon. Once the action on Exchange Street wraps up, the celebration will continue with an afterparty on Milk St from 7PM to 9PM.

3 floating cities in the harbor today
population ~8,056
combined hours of pollution ~32

Next season there is already scheduled a 100% increase in days with 2 or more ships in the harbor, from 13 to 26. There is no long range strategy for cruise tourism in Portland, just more, more, more.

Was able to see the smoking stack from today’s cruise ship all the way from Ft Williams this morning
