It is our annual Thanksgiving tradition to share Asa’s version of “Over the River and Through the Woods.” Whether you’re traveling to visit family and friends, having a small gathering at home, or celebrating somewhere in between, here’s a little song for you to sing. From our family to yours, safe travels and Happy Thanksgiving! Over the […]
Yesterday I told you about the two dogs who accompanied the Pilgrims on their adventure settling Plymouth. They weren’t the only dogs to be mentioned in the primary sources by William Bradford and Edward Winslow. According to them there were “ten good dogs” living at a fishing outpost. In fact, these dogs were living in […]
In November 1620 the Mayflower arrived in New England with 102 passengers, an estimated crew of 30 people, and 2 dogs. Today we salute those brave pups, who after a voyage of 66 days found themselves exploring a strange new world. In his journal, Of Plymouth Plantation, William Bradford was strangely silent on the contributions of these […]
We interrupt our regularly scheduled post for today because I need to have a serious conversation with Asa about an incident that occurred on the way to bed last night. Asa: Is it because I was feeling sluggish and headed up to bed early? Chuck Billy: That’s exactly what the problem is! Asa: I didn’t […]

Not unlike many others found across the state, it has an historic marker along a busy road that is often ignored by tourists headed to more exciting places, and taken for granted by local residents as they go about their […]
I can’t believe it happened again! Then again, of course I can believe it. After all I am a renowned Dog Ufologist, and therefore always on alert! This past weekend while I was enjoying a stroll on the beach with my family, I noticed something suspicious in the distance. It was another UFO sighting over […]
Halloween may be over, but dogs across the nation faced something even scarier this past weekend, Daylight Saving Time, in which humans insist on serving our dinners one hour late! To drive the point home that this is more than inconvenience, but a true horror for dogs, Asa has written a parody of the scariest […]
Blame it on all that talk about turning seawater into gold at Klondike Mountain in Lubec. Or maybe it was due to the pacing pirate ghosts that visited our rental cabin on that dark and stormy night. Regardless of the cause, I had treasure on my mind, and I was going to find it! While […]
