[at-l] LL Bean-

[lbooher at pure.net (Leslie Booher)]

When I worked at a seed shop in IN, I had a customer once who'd grown up near LL Bean.  Their family tradition was to open their presents on Christmas morning, then go to the old LL Bean store (when it was a warehouse-type place) and look at their tree.  I always liked that little vignette on several levels: (1) it was a nice, homey tradition; (2) it meant that LL Bean was really open on Christmas Day.  anklebear

    I think that was the original intent of Leon Leonwood. And don't get me started about that store in Freeport. I could
    move in there and be perfectly happy for the rest of my life.

  LOL!!

  I've Bean there too. Pretty awesome (Beans, AND Maine). But never in winter.
  Maybe someday I will spend a winter in New England.
