I recently moved to Portland, Maine!  Have you been there?

I haven't been - but you're now a resident of the most populous city in Maine!  One of 67,067 residents :-)

I did not know that!  That doesn't seem like very many people.  Is Portland known for anything in particular?

Portland has a lot going for it!  It's an area tourist's love and the Old Port district is super popular.

I will have to check that out!  How old is the city?

Well, Native Americans trailed receding glaciers into Portland, Maine way back in 11,000 BCE

Very interesting!  There seems to be a lot of history in the city!  I look forward to exploring!

Indeed!  The city seal is a pheonix rising from the ashes.  The city has recovered from devastating fires in the past

Really?  What caused the fires?
