Stories from the road
Tough choices: Heat your home or feed your family?
Mainers are known for their hardiness. Whether working in the woods or out on the fishing boat, they live the long-told tale of hard work passed down to them from mothers and fathers who earned livings without much fanfare. Times are not always easy. Maine’s unpredictable winters invite cold temperatures and significant snowfall. As a result, maintaining one’s household finances can be equally unpredictable. The coldest winters might mean several unbudgeted oil deliveries. For those living on a fixed income, an extra oil delivery results in tough choices: a warm house or a warm meal?
