Over the years I’ve mentioned my kitty cousins once or twice. Ok, I’ve mentioned them a lot, especially considering I’ve never actually met them because they hide when I visit. For years I was led to believe that there were only cats on my Babci and Pepere’s side of the family. Well you can’t begin […]
The Unidentified Floating Object has landed again in Maine! I first reported about this mysterious ice disk appearing in the Presumpscot River in Westbrook, Maine in 2019. Well now it is back almost 3 years to the day! Local meteorologists would like you to believe that this Unidentified Floating Object is simply a natural phenomenon […]
Asa here. Left paw. Right paw. Left paw. Right paw. Can’t talk now. Left paw. Right paw. Left paw. Right paw. Must concentrate. Left paw. Right paw. Left paw. Right paw. Road icy. Left paw. Right paw. Left paw. Right paw. Might slip. Left paw. Right paw. Left paw. Right paw. Oh hello leaf! *slips* […]
Mother Nature, I know we’re all nostalgic for the “good old days,” before the pandemic. However, bringing back below freezing temperatures not felt here in Maine since 2018, is not helping. No one wants to relive these bone chilling temperatures, with this morning’s subzero windchill making it “feel like” between -20 to -35ºF in Maine. […]
I, Chuck Billy, stand corrected. Last month I wrote a disparaging post about the Strange Suggestions I was receiving in my social media newsfeed. Now don’t get me wrong, I still stand by my statement that no one needs a Cat Shower Net Bag or dog suspenders to keep their booties on. However, recently a […]
With the Twelve Days of Christmas coming to a close yesterday, the Holiday season has officially ended. I must say though, Asa was in rare form with blatantly breaking the rules this year at our grandparents’ homes. Yes, I can understand he was overly excited having been apart from them the year before. However, even […]
Last year you may recall Asa and I learned about the Anglo-Saxon tradition of wassailing apple trees. After 8 years of not having a bountiful harvest, or really any harvest to speak of, we headed out on Twelfth Night, January 6th, to participate in this ancient tradition of scaring away the evil spirits by blessing […]
They say age is just a number. Well when it comes to calculating dog years, that number is more complicated than I realized. Dogs, I have good news and bad news. The good news is the years may not be flying by as quickly as we thought. Contrary to what we’ve been led to believe, […]
Last year we double dog dared you to take our photography challenge. We not only dared you to take a photo each day of your pup, but to try to take it from different perspectives. And from what we’ve seen on Twitter and Facebook many of you rose to the challenge documenting everything from daily […]
Charles Dickens once wrote, “When happiness shows up, always give it a comfortable seat.” A lovely sentiment, especially when guests are visiting during the Holidays. However, when Mr. Fezziwig gave this advice to a young Scrooge, I’m pretty sure he didn’t intend it to be a recommendation for a gift. Case in point, after watching […]
