In my opinion, winter truly is the best season. Hands down. Fall is a close second, but winter really has so much to offer. During my years growing up, I never saw it that way, but I sure do now. The reason I wasn’t very fond of winter while I was young is because it […]

Hiking Pico Ridge – the Cliff Above Clearwater Lake
So far, this autumn has been very nice. It’s been dry and just the right temperature. There were a few hot and humid days thrown in there about a week ago, but they passed quickly and we returned to our regular temperatures. Around 40 degrees at night and 55 during the day, although last night […]
Taking Some Video of Mosher Hill Falls in Farmington, Maine
Yesterday was car inspection day. We have a car and a truck that both need to get inspected annually. A few years back, I decided to get them looked at in the same month, so things would be easier and I’d remember when that month was. For some reason or another, I thought that April […]
Hiking to the Maine Huts & Trails Poplar Hut in Carrabassett, Maine
What a perfect day. We just got back from exploring the wilderness and I have to tell you that this winter hiking really is a thing. There were people all over the place in the woods. I was so surprised. I even snapped some photos of them to prove it. I used to think that […]
Three Inches of Snow Overnight
Well, we woke up to this year’s first substantial snowfall. I’m not sure the word substantial is the correct one to use here because all we got was a mere three inches, but it did cover all the grass, so that’s good enough for me. And the fact that I had to use the snowblower […]
Hiking Center Hill Nature Trail in Mount Blue State Park, Maine
Today was a very adventurous day for us. After a bit of work this morning, I suggested that we get out there to enjoy this wonderful fall weather we’ve been having. Apparently, there’s a gigantic state we’re living in that has yet to be explored. We’ve seen, I don’t know, maybe half of a half […]
We’ve Got a Blizzard Going On
This has been one busy week weather-wise. I feel like we’re living in Siberia or something. People are out and about on their snowmobiles and Sugarloaf is in high gear with all sorts of skiers and snowboarders. Good winters only come around every so often. When they do, they really do. I’m going to guess […]
Looking For Moose Tracks in the Warm January Air
It was surprisingly warm today. The last time I checked, the temperature was at 49 degrees. Not bad for January 11th. I think tomorrow is supposed to be fairly warm as well. The forecast is telling me it’s going to be around 42. Of course, it’s supposed to drop back down to -3 on Friday, […]
We’ve Hit Peak Fall Foliage in Maine
Just a few moments ago, I was in the back yard walking around. I had to run back inside to grab my camera. The beauty of the day insisted upon it. Boy, it sure is nice out there. Not many days like this per year, so we better enjoy them while they’re here. The leaves […]
Syrup & Snow
I just went outside to check my buckets and found five more gallons of sap. It’s been flowing pretty well these past few days. When I first tapped the trees in early March, I was lucky to get a gallon every few days, but since I moved part of my operation up to the Rock […]
