    ,

    Back in September, our youngest son Braden (the grave looking young man in the Levi’s hoodie) turned 14 years old. He and his older brother Marcus have always been huge Twenty-One Pilot’s fans. Our gift to him was tickets to the Twenty-One Pilots Clancy Tour concert in Bangor for both of them and Marcus’ fiancé.…

  • Barred Owl

    Kim and I have been hearing this Barred Owl (or one just like it) for years, and I finally spotted him today. He wasn’t 500 feet from our house, just behind us in the trees. It sat there calmly as Jeannie and I made our way through the trail by our home (Jeannie’s favorite place…

    Graham Platner isn’t satisfied with the status quo. In fact, he’s downright pissed about it, and he’s not alone.

  • September Summary: Art Shows and Music Festivals

    Local artists and numerous musical performances have dominated our calendar this month. Kim and I have had a couple of busy weeks this month between art shows and music festivals.

It was met mostly with cheers and horn honking in solidarity, as well as a few middle fingers, revved engines, and…

  • Storm Over the Aroostook River

    Here’s a quick video I took of a rain storm that passed over the Aroostook River a couple of days ago. This was taken with an Insta360 X5 camera. I just love the way the hyperlapse feature of the Insta360 Studio software can help showcase the beauty of a storm in a condensed form.
