Our First Invited Guest
Yesterday we had our first visitor inside our house in what seems like a bazillion dog years! In fact, we can’t remember the last time we invited someone inside our home. Oh sure, Asa has had mice, ants, and various other bugs inside to play over the past year. But they weren’t invited and quickly […]
We’ve Been Framed

Searching for Vegas in Maine

In a rare state of optimism, over the rainy weekend Dad decided to spread some grass seeds in the backyard, in an attempt to […]

It’s June 1, 2021! Do you know what that means? The unclassified and all-sources report on Unidentified Aerial Phenomenon (UAP), the official military term used for Unidentified Flying Objects (UFOs), commissioned by the Intelligence Authorization Act is due! According to this act signed into law in December 2020, the Director of National Intelligence must work […]
In Loving Memory of the War Dogs
On this Memorial Day weekend as we honor the men and women who gave the ultimate sacrifice, we also remember our smallest soldiers who selflessly served our country. Dogs have served alongside US soldiers during every major conflict since the American Revolution to the present day. Yet more often than not their names have been […]
