Yup, living in Maine for so many years, NH before that, I hear Downeast used as an expression in Maine too, I still haven't figured out exactly where "Downeast Maine" is. I think it is one of those things you are suppose to just know what it is referring to because you are from Maine, but no one seems to give you the exact physical location of it. And shoot....I use "so it would be like" a lot, so where does that put me besides old.
