Unbearable Hike
There we were greeted at the Hedgehog Mountain trailhead with a sign no Dog wants to see. A Bear was seen enjoying our hiking trails! I really can’t blame him. 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 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, […]

May I be so bold as to suggest the perfect name? While George and Charlotte are perfectly fine names for your other children, I think this baby should have a name […]

Big Bad Billy
Chuck Billy and Maddie sitting under a tree, K-I-S-S-I-N-G! Chuck Billy is all flustered about a girl! As we all know, my big brother prides himself on being a big tough guy. He never hesitates to bark at threats both real and imagined. Well after visiting Grandma, it is pretty obvious he’s met his match […]
