It was a last minute idea, hiking in Katahdin in October can be iffy. In the history of us doing these treks we have had every weather state from freezing snow to bright sunshine, but it is always worth a shot as the hikes are not too long, so even in the rain, it is [...]

We miss you! Yes there is far less dog hair around but we cannot get out of rooms without you opening the doors for us. We have been in the air conditioned bedroom for days. It was great. We did not want to leave the cool [...] ✡ Slobbie wrote this entry on Thursday, 21st of April 2011 at 10:26:22 AMHi Ellie, Happy Passover! Just had some Matzo..it was plain..would have preferred some peanut butter with it. Sorry it has taken so long to write but I cannot get to the computer without you being here. Cart and I miss you and so does Harlow. She says you were so much fun to annoy and [...]  ✡ Ellie wrote this entry on Thursday, 3rd of March 2011 at 02:28:34 PMWell Dad Slobbie is just so jealous of me that we are getting into verbal arguments. She just cannot stand when G_Mom pays attention to me. We all have our own time with G_Mom and mine is when we settled down on the couch. I am not allowed on the couch but I sit and [...] ✡ Ellie wrote this entry on Friday, 11th of February 2011 at 10:54:22 AMHi Dad, G_Mom said I should tell you that I am attending canine remedial listening classes. I am not stupid and have a rather large canine vocabulary, however I have an excellent case of selective listening, which apparently is very frustrating to humans. Fortunately I did not have any privileges taken away. I am not [...] ✡ Ellie wrote this entry on Friday, 17th of December 2010 at 09:11:26 AMDear Dad, Is Maine not the Pine Tree State? So why am I in trouble for eating pinecones? Look Dad they are everywhere in my reach at G-Mom’s house. What the big deal? They are free! The big deal is apparently that G_Mom has scented these Pinecones to make the house smell less dog like, [...] ✡ Nathan wrote this entry on Saturday, 11th of December 2010 at 05:17:27 PMI warn you, this is a ramble or sorts, and It definitely might make you wonder what I am up to on a Saturday afternoon, but my intent is to be though provoking. I observe Shabbat as much as I can, and a day of no technology and thinking, well makes a guy think! I [...] ✡ Ellie wrote this entry on Wednesday, 22nd of September 2010 at 09:59:02 AMHi Dad, Ellie here. Well most of my canine friends get groomed, but not me, I get BROOMED! Not sure if this is a Maine cultural tradition but G_Mom sweeps me every day now and I love it. I have my very own broom. G_Mom even explained the difference between brooms to me. I cannot [...] ✡ Ellie wrote this entry on Friday, 6th of August 2010 at 10:31:10 AMDad, Hope you are well. It has been so hot and humid here and G_Mom keeps us in the air conditioned bedroom, so I cannot get to the computer! However I figured out how to open the door and last night we got caught. G_Mom came home and we did not hear her….OH BOY…trouble in [...] ✡ Ellie wrote this entry on Thursday, 22nd of July 2010 at 08:36:18 AMHi Dad, Did you ever spend time in a bath tub with three dogs, and a cat? Not fun let me tell you…we were all scared…even me! Below is the headline from the Portland Press Herald. Explosive thunderstorms that triggered tornados throughout southern Maine knocked down trees and power lines, flooded streets and damaged homes [...] ✡ Nathan wrote this entry on Thursday, 15th of July 2010 at 02:29:09 PMDear Ellie, Thank you for writing so often. I miss you! Not much is new in NJ. The apartment is really quiet and lonely without you. It is much more fur free, however. I still wake up at 6:30 and a couple times I was so asleep I went looking for you but didn’t find [...] ✡ Ellie wrote this entry on Thursday, 15th of July 2010 at 11:14:01 AMHi Dad, Sorry I have not written but I have been busy with the girls catching up on the family gossip. Days just fly by….. G_Mom bought me my own box fan. She says anybody that has to wear a coat like mine in this heat and humidity deserves their own fan. Slobbie is really [...] ✡ Ellie wrote this entry on Monday, 29th of March 2010 at 02:06:05 PMPhew! Have you ever gone to the vet’s office with three dogs? Yap! Yap! Apparently Dad, it was time for my March visit with the vet. I am in great health with a slight tumor under my right eye lid that needs to be monitored over the coming years to make sure it does not [...] ✡ Nathan wrote this entry on Friday, 12th of March 2010 at 08:45:45 PMDearest Snowe-monster- I appreciate what you and others are doing to help people regarding the closing of the seafood processing plant in Prospect Harbor. I have to ask, however, as a Republican and tied to their near ethically bankrupt views on businesses, isn’t interfering in free market rapacious capitalism against you party line? Don’t actions [...] ✡ Nathan wrote this entry on Wednesday, 3rd of March 2010 at 12:05:13 PMAfter a three decade artistic love affair with Louise Nevelson, I finally own one! Not exactly one of her MoMA grade sculptures but an cool silver print she made in the later years of her career. It was hand made by the artist and signed. I purchased it on vacation with my mom in Rockland [...] |
