緬因於1820年3月15日成為美國的一州
許多人為了從事木材工業而搬到緬因州,其他人則是為了該地的美景,或者只是想要搬到一個新的地方,而到緬因州定居。當這裡成為美國一州之前,已經有大約30萬人住在這裡了。現在緬因州是密西西比河以東人煙最稀少的一州。緬因州的肯納邦克港 (Kennebunkport) 小鎮從二十世紀初期以來,就是十分流行的海邊度假勝地。你知道哪一位美國前總統與他的夫人到現在還在這裡度假嗎?你有沒有去過緬因州呢?

Do you know what former president and first lady still vacation there? Have you ever visited Maine?
