The Fiddlehead Restaurant staff said Howard ate dinner there on Friday night, and on Saturday, he tweeted a photo of his breakfast at Dysart’s in Hermon. Howard remarked on the friendliness of the people in Bangor that day.

He also was spotted shopping at the Rock and Art Shop, tweeted about visiting Hollywood Casino, where he said he won $45, and visited the city’s big Paul Bunyan statue.
