You know you live in Maine when you come home from running errands to find your new Sleep Number bed boxes in the middle of the kitchen floor thanks to a great UPS guy who will go to the extra effort to make sure they don't get rained on.

drivers always stop for you when you are a pedestrian at a crosswalk, and even when you are not at a crosswalk. Always! This is so cool.
