The First Family has scheduled another getaway. And in order to show their solid support for the people of the Gulf Coast, they’re going to Maine.
The Bangor Daily News reports the holiday hijinks:
The first family will spend next weekend vacationing on Mount Desert Island, according to U.S. Rep. Chellie Pingree.
President Barack Obama and his family are scheduled to arrive Friday, July 16, and stay through Sunday, July 18.
Information about where the family would stay and the sights they might take in while visiting Maine was not available Friday night. The visit is a personal family vacation and no public appearances are scheduled, Pingree said.
“What an honor that the Obama family has chosen Maine for vacation when they could have gone anywhere in the country,” she said. “I think the Obamas will really enjoy the quiet woods, beautiful coast, wonderful people and everything else that brings thousands of families here every year.”
The people of the Gulf Coast will surely be happy to note that President Obama is resting up in Maine after a busy schedule of not resting until the damn hole is plugged.
