This yearly event isn't just watching cute and funny cat videos, although that would be enough to make any feline lover want to attend. This is also a bit of a fundraiser for the Pope Memorial Humane Society in Thomaston
Back in the 1930s the Philbrick Avenue neighborhood off of Route 1 in Rockland was a quaint little neighborhood with 13 cottages for local workers in the area to call home. The neighborhood basically fell apart after years of neglect. The cottages fell into disrepair, septic systems failed and the houses were uninhabitable. In 2012 they were all torn down and the land was forgotten about.
By next summer, you may be able to take the Amtrak Downeaster from Boston all the way to Rockland, Maine if another expansion of passenger rail service happens as planned.

UFO sightings are not unheard of in Maine. This one is a little different for me though. When I watched this, I said to myself the exact same thing as the guy filming the video.
