Rockland, population 8000, is home to the Maine Lobster Festival, a
celebration held annually in honor of the town's main export: lobster.
We visited the
Farnsworth Art Museum and its Wyeth Center
dedicated to the three generations of Wyeths: N.C., Andrew, and James
Wyeth. Great museum in spite of being in such a small town. Had a great lunch at a friendly local joint, Brass Compass Cafe. What a great Lobster Caesar Salad. Julius Caesar never had it so good!

Christina's World by Andrew Wyeth
Christina was the model for Wyeth when he painted the painting. She was
in fact crippled by polio and could not walk even if she tried. Some say the painting
is about longing and loneliness and wanting to escape. Below is a 3 minute video about Andrew Wyeth.
