Three. Day. Weekend. Does anything else matter? This weekend (which, like I said, is three days long) is your chance to milk some of those last drops of summer. Do that during a beachside picnic in Saco (water balloon toss AND BYOB!) or during the Chebeague Chebang (which was canceled on account of Fourth of July rain). The Portland Brew Festival returns Friday and Saturday and there’s a Brew Haha at Rising Tide Friday night. Win at bingo (it’s a play, but still gives out prizes), take a haunted tour or have dinner with someone from beyond. And also, please, have a drink on a patio somewhere, while you still can.

For the weekend of August 28-September 1 (that includes Monday, because Monday is a HOLIDAY!)
