Ok, don’t panic. But Asa may have been bitten by a radioactive spider and now has super powers. I know, it sounds ridiculous, but it’s the only logical explanation as to why he is glowing. It all started when we were recently at a farm picking pumpkins. Asa wandered off to make friends with a […]
An ice age puppy mummy has been found in the Canadian frozen tundra! This astonishingly well-preserved wolf pup was found by gold miners near Dawson City in the Yukon. Initially thought to be a dog, due to it’s easily recognizable paws, tail and canine features, scientists soon realized it was an estimated eight week old wolf […]
Guess what? Just like Golden Retrievers come in a wide spectrum of color from light to dark, so does honey! Bees make honey by gathering nectar from flowers. However, between spring and autumn the types of flowers differ. Thus producing a variety of colors ranging from nearly colorless to dark brown depending on what is […]
A Skunk, a Porcupine, and a Bear walked into my yard one day. I wish this was the start of one of Asa’s bad jokes, but sadly it isn’t! We were only gone for a week, but during that time some rather unsavory neighbors moved in too close to home. Thankfully we haven’t been formally […]
While Asa was on his little adventure looking for pirate treasure, I embarked on a much more important quest during our recent vacation. I was going to finally have lobster for dinner! I’m not certain, but I think it is an unwritten residency rule that all Mainers must eat their weight in lobsters once a […]
Asa here. Before setting off on our vacation I read Robert Louis Stevenson’s Treasure Island. It’s hard to believe with all the silly things that Chuck Billy believes, finding a map leading to buried treasure isn’t one of them. Would you believe he told me the days of pirate maps and finding treasure chests were […]
Four forts and several hikes ago, we set off for a grand adventure! Last week Asa and I took Mom and Dad on vacation. This year we visited the Searsport, Maine area. Searsport is approximately one hour south of Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park, and offers many scenic dog friendly places to explore, yet […]
Mom came home from grocery shopping with a perfect sugar cookie contestant for Tongue Out Tuesday. Too bad it is only Friday. But this does remind me of the time when Asa and myself were honored by being immortalized as sugar cookies. The following is my post from August 2015… I’m Kind of a Big […]
Asa here. While Chuck Billy is busy practicing sitting on his pedestal, I’d like to take this opportunity to share my thoughts on our recent experience training Mom and Dad. In many of his posts Chuck Billy accuses me of not grasping the seriousness of the situation or goofing off entirely. However, it is simply […]
Now that Mom and Dad’s summer school training is over, we’re gearing up to hit the trails to bring you even more Dog Friendly Places to enjoy! However, before we do, let’s take a stroll down memory lane to the strangest sign we’ve ever seen while hiking. As you probably guessed, Asa and I spend […]
