My Shocking Sudden Taste for Literature
I don’t know what came over me? I’ve never done that before. Yes, I admit I’m a stress eater. But I wasn’t feeling particularly stressed. Besides, it has been ages since I’ve gnawed on anything. Sure I enjoyed chewing a bone or two back in my youth, and have destroyed my fair share of stuffed […]
National Dog Photography Day Bloopers
Today is National Dog Photography Day! A day that encourages dogs, photography enthusiasts, and all dog lovers to post as many photos of their dogs, guilt-free. However, Asa and I do admit there are times we do feel a little guilty when it comes to posing. Truth be told, we don’t always share the same […]
The Kale Caterpillar Caper
Earlier this summer I stopped the Chipmunk Caper, but crime never rests. Although Sarah Owl Jewett continues to hold the Chipmunk at bay, I now have a new formidable foe wreaking havoc in my garden. Something is making our Dinosaur Kale go extinct! I think I’ve mentioned before Asa’s obsession with kale. So to satisfy […]

Santa’s Secret Summer Visit
Dear Santa, well played! Well played, indeed! You even fooled Chuck Billy. But as your little helper, I know exactly what you did! I admit at first I was confused about why you came to personally install our new gutter guards. Sure it made sense that back in December 2020, that you installed the rain […]

Under Pressure to Avoid a Washout for Mom’s Gift
After months of waiting I am sad to report Dad’s Mother’s Day gift for our Mom is a washout. He wanted to make a big splash by giving her what all women want as a gift, namely a pressure washer! And not just any pressure washer. One that came with special attachments to clean the […]
Our Golden Moment as Lifeguards
If you’re at the Scarborough State Beach this summer, you may see their newest lifeguard in training, Beacon the Newfie. Newfies are bred to aid with water rescues, and Beacon’s job will eventually be to help Maine state lifeguards tow in people on floatation devices during rescues. Not to brag, but I will, Beacon isn’t […]
