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. […]
Mom and Dad, I’m sure you’re wondering why we called this meeting. Relax! This isn’t the usual talk where we reprimand you for serving dinner late. We can discuss that later. As you know today is National Take Your Dog to Work Day, which falls each year on the Friday after Father’s Day. However, as […]
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 […]
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 […]
As many of you know, a few years ago Asa and I took over the guest room as our room. It’s our space to do as we please, from curling up for a peaceful night’s sleep, a place to relax when we need a little quiet time, or perhaps hide a few secrets from the […]
In 1607, when Jamestown, Virginia was just getting its footing, another brave group of settlers set off for the coast of Maine to establish Popham Colony in what is today’s Phippsburg. Granted a charter by King James I, under the direction of the Virginia Company, approximately 120 colonists dropped anchor at what is now the […]
This week Asa’s World Tour of Maine is coming to you from Bath! Located near the mouth of the Kennebec River, this area first attracted European settlers in 1607 at the nearby Popham colony. Alright, so they barely lasted a year before heading back to England. However, not to be deterred, more Europeans eventually returned […]
