Apparently there was a time back around 1960 (I’m guessing because of the style of car) that Maine was contemplating going with “Sardineland” instead of “Vactionland” as its motto. I’m glad they chose Vacationland, rather than the one named after a smelly, oily fish that is now not as commonly found in Maine waters as it once was.
