Ground Round - On Odlin Rd at end of airport runway (from I-95, take
   exit 45 to I395 West and immediate right at light to Odlin Rd;  1/2

BearBrew Pub - Main St.  Orono (use Rt2 to downtown Orono, at either
   light turn East;  1 block;  park in municipal lot;  enter from
   municipal lot).  Great beer.  Say "Hi!" to Milos for me.

There are lots of other places, but I don't know of any within walking

and 15 minutes from Husson.
