As our quest for the Berkshires’ Bigfoot continued, Asa reminded me that we were also in western Massachusetts to celebrate Mom and Dad’s anniversary. Therefore, after the success of our first day, I reluctantly agreed to a side trip to visit The Mount, home of Edith Wharton, author of The Age of Innocence, Ethan Frome, and The House […]
Last month we headed to the Berkshires in western Massachusetts to pursue my interest in the paranormal. Why the Berkshires? Because way back in 2017 I watched a documentary discussing sightings of UFOs, ghosts, and Bigfoot at October Mountain in this mountainous and forested region of Massachusetts, and ever since I have been determined to […]
Sadly more dogs go missing on the 4th of July than any other day of the year, and visits to animal hospitals also increase due to medical emergencies. The following are a few reminders for how to have a safe holiday, and what to do if a dog is lost, as well as what to […]
Today is World UFO Day! A day dedicated to bring awareness about this phenomenon, and to encourage everyone to scan the skies for unidentified flying objects. So as I continue to review my findings from my recent research trip to find UFOs, ghosts, and Bigfoot in the Berkshires of Massachusetts, I’d like to share how I […]
It is great to be back, and wow do we have adventures to share! We left the state of Maine, and drove all the way to the Berkshires in western Massachusetts! Asa and I planned this trip as a special surprise for Mom and Dad’s anniversary. It had everything they love – history and hiking. […]

Mother Nature is disrupting our routine with the first heatwave of the summer. In an effort to keep things cool in the house, certain doors are closed in order to run the air conditioner. I do not like closed doors. Should I bark at the obvious choice to be opened? Or should I choose a […]
They say, “When in Rome, do as the Romans do.” So in Rome, Maine, that means taking a hike up French Mountain. Maintained by the 7 Lakes Alliance, this dog friendly hike is moderate on the paws with spectacular views of the surrounding lakes and mountains. At an elevation of 716 feet, the loop trail […]
This week your roaming band of rovers on Asa’s World Tour of Maine are in Rome, Maine. Settled around 1780 by a person from Lebanon, Maine, Rome was incorporated in 1804 and named for the ancient Italian city. Although as far as I can tell, this tranquil community has very little, if anything, in common […]
It has been awhile since we’ve shared an update on Asa’s eye. We are not schedule to see his ophthalmologist until September, but we do have good news to share based on personal observations. Asa’s eye appears to be doing very well! Mom accidentally misplaced our orange ball, and reluctantly she took our green one […]
