Along Route 1, in Thomaston, Maine, is a store filled with crafts – birdhouses and dollhouses, salad bowls and sailing ships – all made in Maine state prisons.
Ted and Barbara Widmayer have been shopping here for decades. "We found the quality to be excellent," said Ted.
"It's very nice that somebody who is perhaps in a place that he or she wishes she weren't, still has the spirit to make something nice like that," Barbara added.
