Dire Wolf School
Ok, I admit it, I’ve been a little lazy when it comes to homeschooling Asa. So he may have forgotten a lesson or two. However, I never realized how out of touch he was getting with his inner Wolf until he insisted on bringing his squeaky toy on a hike with us! It didn’t even […]

Goldens of the Corn Maze
Asa and I have swam in the vast ocean and climbed the highest mountains, but who would have guessed our biggest challenge would be a corn maze! My first warning that this wasn’t going to be a typical hike was the the map posted at the trailhead. Now I’ve seen some complicated trails in my […]

Bear in mind, Hedgehog Mountain really is a nice hike, and there’s nothing on the signs that say, “No Bears Allowed.” Perhaps he decided to […]

Hedgehog Mountain, Freeport, ME
With over 5 miles of trails, Hedgehog Mountain in Freeport, Maine is a popular dog friendly hike. But don’t let the name fool you! Hedgehog Mountain is more of a hill, reaching less than 300 feet above sea level. It is, however, the highest point in Freeport, and thanks to the local Boy Scouts, efforts […]

Walking Day and Nighttime
I think we all could use a smile this morning. So I’m going to do something uncharacteristic of me. I’m letting Asa pick from the archives his favorite song parody to share with you today. It comes with little surprise that he chose a song he is often heard singing on our daily walks. Ok, […]

Walk for Grandpa
I’m stepping out of my comfort zone today. Normally I share information about fundraising events that support animals, whether it be shelters, service dogs, working dogs, or even the occasional cat cause, I’m a strong believer in lending a helping paw. But today I’d like to ask you to consider participating in a fundraiser that […]
