“You can’t get thar from here” is an old time Maine saying!
We want to be sure “you can get here from there” so we bring you the
latest update on the status of the Memorial Bridge (which is adjacent to
our property from downtown Portsmouth). As many of you know, the
Memorial Bridge is either being replaced with a new bridge or being turned
into a “walking/biking” bridge only. Either way, the bridge will be closed
for at least two years to bring it within the safety standards. For the best
results on “getting to Warren’s”, I suggest that you use the “I-95” bridge
starting now. I always use this bridge when coming to work. That way,
you will not be inconvenienced should construction begin this summer/fall.
If we get specific news regarding the bridge, we will email any updates
through our “Saturday Emails” from Colleen.
If you are not yet on our e-mail list, please provide your email address to:

Our waterside deck is the “best kept secret” on the Seacoast.
Where else can you see the river roll by as you sip your favorite
beverage? Or enjoy an array of delicious appetizers? The outer
deck is a wrap around section open to the salt air where drinks and
appetizers are served during the warm months.
The main deck seats 70-80 people and is enclosed, covered,
screened and carpeted. Should the weather turn chilly, we have a
heater to provide a comfortable setting.
To see pictures of our deck visit our
Warren’s Lobster House
Facebook page.

As Scott and I prepared for the last night of Warren’s 70th
Birthday/Open House celebration, we were pleasantly surprised by
the appearance of three close friends who had flown in from
Pennsylvania to surprise us. What a special delight! We also had
cousins from New York and Connecticut join us for
the birthday bash!
This is what memories are made of!
 Employee Spotlight:
Christopher Barnes
The support staff in our kitchen is critical to the food we prepare
for you. Christopher Barnes is entering his 5th year being a part of that staff. He can handle any station in the kitchen.
Barnes (as he likes to be called) also helps with the catering department
and has assisted me when I had a business conference here.
As a youngster Barnes was born in Dallas, Texas and lived in the Midwest. When he was 9 years
old, he moved with his father to Australia where he lived until age 13. He thoroughly enjoyed this
experience and keeps in touch with his half brother Aaron. The “apple of his eye” right now is
Zachary, his half brother who is seven years old. Zachary lives close by so Barnes can be the “best
role model ever”.
When Barnes returned to the states he attended Dover schools and
graduated from Dover High School. He previously worked in a kitchen at Riverside Rest Home
where he gained food service experience.
His cats, Kayla and Shadow are his pets and he also enjoys playing the guitar. He is an avid sports
fan and loves basketball and baseball. Of course the Red Sox are his favorite team and he has attended
several games. Barnes is also an avid golfer.
When asked where he would like to travel, he answered was England and back to Australia.
Something tells me we may see Mr. Barnes making a return trip to the “land down under” where
the weather is just about perfect according to Chris.

Help Us Save the Memorial Bridge!
We are trying to assure that the historic Memorial Bridge is replaced so that
you can easily drive to Warren’s Lobster House and many other Kittery
Businesses. Please take a moment to fill out a postcard like this and send it to
Commissioner Cole in the State of Maine.
To validate the postcard, please sign and include your return address.
Thank you for all your help!
