Haunted by the Telltale Tail
Gather round my friends. There’s a Halloween feel in the air today. So join me as we take a candlelight stroll down memory lane to a story I first shared in 2019. This tale, inspired by true events, is a homage to Edgar Allan Poe’s “The Tell-Tale Heart” (1843), and continues to haunt me to […]

Calais, Maine’s Waterfront Walkway
Asa’s World Tour of Maine continues with a visit to Calais, Maine! Located along the St. Croix River which separates the United States from Canada, it was named after Calais, France, in recognition of the assistance the French gave us during the American Revolution.

Shackford Head State Park, Eastport, Maine

In fact our hike at Shackford Head State Park quickly turned into a bad situation that could have easily been the plot of a Stephen King novel. Shortly after starting our hike, we were fleeing from the trail! When we arrived we were […]

Eastport, Maine Waterfront Park
Asa and I visited the easternmost city in the United States, Eastport, Maine! Located on Moose Island, this area was frequented by the Passamaquoddy for thousands of years. It was first visited by European explorers, fishermen, and traders in the 1600s, but it wasn’t until 1811 that it was incorporated as a town. Thanks to […]

Slow Down Or You’ll Miss It
Ferris Bueller once said, “Life moves pretty fast. If you don’t stop and look around once in a while, you can miss it.” So in following his lead, we are taking some time off. Alright, so while we unplug, Asa and I won’t be “borrowing” a Ferrari, and I can guarantee our adventures won’t be […]
