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 […]

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 […]
Exciting news! During my time away, my manager Llily Llama added a new member to my Asa’s World Tour of Maine team. Introducing my stylist, Llorenzo Llamas! Note the different spelling of Llorenzo.

Please join me for a hike down memory lane when in 2016 Angel Chuck Billy and I came across this cryptic warning in the woods. Beware of Free […]
