Earlier this week, quite a few friends commented on how brave I was when I spotted the Great Squirrel tiptoeing across my rooftop. Well truth be told, I’m hardly the big brave type. Such was the case when while staying at a vacation rental cottage, I was scared by my Imaginary Friend! Now in my […]
Maine is known for its rocky coastline, but Jasper Beach, located in Howard Cove, Machiasport, rocks out to its own unique music. I first visited this beach way back in 2016, but recently returned during Asa’s World Tour of Maine. Please join me for a stroll down memory lane, with Chuck Billy’s review from when […]
Did you hear that noise? The Great Squirrel must be up to his tricks again. What’s this? You don’t believe in the Great Squirrel! I’ve seen him myself! Gather round, and I’ll tell you the tale. It was a cold autumn twilight. I was taking my Dad for one last walk on the lonely country […]
I may have mentioned once or twice that I haven’t shared yet a backlog of places I visited this year. One such place is Quechee State Park in Vermont. Alright, true confessions. This was an impromptu stop on the way home from Angel Chuck Billy’s meticulously planned trip to the Adirondacks in New York. He […]
On Friday I mentioned my 2023 parody of Thin Lizzy’s classic, “The Boys Are Back in Town.” After reminding her of my twist on the lyrics, my manager, Llily Llama, thought I should take a page from Taylor’s playbook, and rerelease it. So without further delay… The Goldens Are Back (October 10, 2023) Guess who […]
Hi Chuck Billy! This weekend will mark 10 months since you crossed Rainbow Bridge. Yet on our recent trip, you showed us irrefutable signs that you’re still going on adventures with us, especially when we visited our happy place at Quoddy Head State Park in Lubec. On that early September morning, there were a lot […]
We had a choice to make at the Pike Lands Preserve in Lubec, Maine. On the right side of North Lubec Road there is an Arboretum and Cove Trail. On the left is the Huckins Beach Trail. Why choose? We explored both! We began our visit walking in the grass field and wooded trails at […]
Choose your own adventure at Boot Head Preserve in Lubec, Maine! With over 2 miles of trails, hikers can explore cobble beaches, steep rocky shorelines, rare raised coastal peatland, upland forests, and views of Maine’s quintessential headlands. Overall the trails are moderate, with some difficult areas for dogs. On the day we visited, we followed […]
Many travel great distances to see the first rays of sun touch the iconic lighthouse in Lubec, Maine. There’s also a lot more to do in this area once the day begins! Join me as I share my walk in Maine’s easternmost town. Our visit began at Mowry Beach Preserve. This 48 acre preserve offers […]
I’m not sure if Angel Chuck Billy ever really wanted this tour stop shared. He took his role as manager for Asa’s World Tour of Maine very seriously, meticulously researching each stop along the way. What he didn’t realize was that a place we’ve been visiting for years, actually fit the tour criteria of a […]
