I found a super old-fashioned elevator in a big converted house in Scarborough, Maine.

I had never been to the building on the corner of Broadturn and Route One in Scarborough, Maine. That said, I had driven by a million times. It's near the Dairy Corner, so of course I've been in the Dunstan Corner area. But I needed some computer help, and found Trey at Creative Tech Owl. He's on the 3rd floor of this big yellow building (it looks white in this photo, but it's yellow).

It was confusing to me how to get to the third floor of his business, and I found myself wandering around until I saw what I thought was an elevator. I figured that it would be the quickest way to get to the third floor and find my new computer guy. First, I had to find the elevator, and when I did, I was giggling because it was so much fun!

I had to open a door to get in and out of the elevator. What? That is so awesome! I asked Trey (tech dude),

Have you seen your elevator? It's so cool!

He informed me that he is on the third floor, and of course he saw it. How do you think he got everything to the third floor? Oh, right. I was so excited to see and use this old-time elevator that I was telling everyone about it. The only other old elevator I saw and used was in a hotel I stayed at in Nova Scotia. That's close to Maine, but doesn't count.
