Maybe you've seen our previous posts on Biddeford, Maine a city that continues to fascinate. Hidden treasures of Biddeford: The Palace Diner, which has been around since 1921. That means HBB's great-grandmother, and likely his great-great-grandfather too, no doubt would grab the occasional cup of java here. The Palace is now owned by Greg Mitchell, and the menu has been considerably tuned up, as Biddeford seems to slowly be morphing into an Outer Borough of Portland.
Trucks, cars, highways, landscape, good writing. "You cannot travel on the path, before you have become the Path itself."
