esquire.com – Up in Maine, there was a kind of quirky local hero named Roxanne Quimby, whose family has a lot of money and owns a lot of land, and the Quimbys are offering 87,000 acres of their land to you and me for a new national monument, and they’re also offering 40 million of their dollars to pay for the new national monument’s general maintenance and upkeep.
