Maine has a 5.5% sales tax, except not for food in the super-market.

Probably, all the squirrels in the Fryeburg-Lovell-Bridgton-Naples area make the short trek up Rt-302 to the North Conway mecca of big stores like Walmart, Home Depot and soon to be built Market Basket, plus all the other name brands there like Old Navy and Brooks Brothers.

There's nothing like North Conway in Maine for all those Maine squirrels. All they got is the Maine acorns and other natural food from their Maine forest.

Someone said the State of NH-DOT started using salty ocean brine for treat'n the winter roads last year, something not done in Maine, and the squirrels seem to lick the NH road asphalt, just to get that salt taste? Just one lick, and they is hooked.
