Dog Friendly Trails
Dog friendly hiking trails for you to explore!
You know how every neighborhood has that one creepy house? It may be a bit rundown. Or even completely abandoned. Or perhaps it looks perfectly normal, but there’s just a weird vibe coming from it. Well our neighborhood isn’t any different. However, what makes that house stand out on our street is Mom and Dad’s […]
Tired of the plain old neighborhood walk? This weekend lend a helping paw by participating in the Virtual Howl-O-Ween 5k to benefit the Animal Rescue League of New Hampshire! All you have to do is register, then go for your regularly planned walk anytime between October 15 and October 18, 2020. Be sure to share […]
Leashing up Dad and taking him on neighborhood patrol may seem like an easy task. But in reality it can be quite dangerous with threats both from the ground and sky. During my eight years walking this beat I’ve been dive bombed by a Turkey Vulture, had my precious poop bag stolen by a Hawk, […]
The Maine coastline is dotted with islands, each with its own ghost story, pirate tale, or both! Today we set sail to Appledore Island, located 7 miles off the coast of Kittery, at the Isles of Shoals, to share one such story. Appledore Island is now a remote field station for the Shoals Marine Lab. […]
Well played, Asa. Well played, indeed! I admit he went to extremes to get what he wanted, but I can’t help but admire his ingenuity. I had forgotten what a literal dog Asa is, so I should have been more careful with the wording of the “no new friends in the house rule.” I do […]
Let’s face it, we all love posting photos of our dogs. Why not lend a helping paw while doing it? Between now and October 31, 2020, post a photo of your pet to Instagram, Facebook, or Twitter using the hashtag #SNELovesPets – and Subaru of New England will donate $5 (up to $60,000 total) to […]
Today we are pressing pause on our scheduled post to pay tribute to Eddie Van Halen. Van Halen was our Mom’s introduction to rock music. She can’t remember when our Uncle bought his first Van Halen album, but instantly the entire family was captivated by his guitar playing. In fact, as a child Mom named […]
When Asa was a puppy, he was convinced that he’d grow up to be a Dire Wolf. No surprise, he didn’t. What is a surprise is we recently learned that a Dire Wolf may have been found in Maine not so long ago. Now I’m not referring to the Dire Wolf craze from a few […]
Not to brag, but this weekend we had our first big apple harvest! For eight years now, Dad has been planting two apple trees a year. The first two he planted died by the end of that summer due to insects. Subsequent trees, which all started out as approximately 2 to 3 feet tall saplings, […]
It’s here! The moment Mom and Asa have been waiting for! The release of Bon Jovi’s newest album, “Bon Jovi 2020!” Well, it’s sort of here. Our CD that Asa ordered hasn’t arrived yet. I know what you’re thinking, he could just purchase a digital album and not have to wait, but Asa is “old […]
