Up until now Asa and I thought the biggest things we had to worry about in the woods were accidentally stepping on Fairy houses or being led over a cliff by a mischievous Chipmunk. All that changed though on a fateful hike at Ravenswood Park, when we learned there are more menacing creatures lurking in […]
Scientists, what do they know? I just read an article about their discovery of “rare Sea Wolves.” Rare? Clearly these scientists need to get out more because on any given morning or evening in Maine you can find these elusive sea loving creatures enjoying the surf and sand at the beaches. In fact, if it […]

Today is Patriots’ Day. A state holiday observed in Massachusetts and Maine, commemorating the anniversary of the Battles of Lexington and Concord, the first battles of the American Revolutionary War, which took place on April 19, 1775. Throughout the day today in Lexington and Concord there will be reenactments of this epic battle. But for those of […]
Today is the anniversary of my Gotcha Day! It’s hard to believe it was only five years ago that I was hanging out in the whelping box with my brothers and sisters. Thankfully, we’re a tight knit group, and I still keep in touch with many of my siblings. Yep, those certainly were carefree days […]

Ladies and Gentlemen of the jury, please be seated. Asa will now present his defense. Please keep in mind you will need to decide, “does the punishment fit the crime?” Asa: Ladies and Gentlemen of the jury, whoever said “No good deed goes unpunished” was absolutely correct. Mom, Dad and Chuck Billy are falsely accusing […]
Asa here. While Chuck Billy continues his week long celebration of his birthday, I thought I’d give him a break and write today’s blog post for him. But before you read it, you have to promise not to reveal his birthday surprise that I bought him, even if you guess what it is from my […]
