Horses are technically not wildlife in Maine, albeit they are in other countries in the world, but I’ll put them under wildlife anyway.
The amazing creature is part of the species “Equidae”. Horses have evolved from a small multi-toed animal into the large, single-toed mammal we are all familiar with today. There are now over 300 [...]

After reading, a post over at the always fab Mischo Beauty.com , I was inspired to give Tom’s Deodorant a try when my old faithful ran out.Products can contain so many chemicals these days, especially antiperspirants which are notorious for their aluminum-based ingredients. Not surprisingly, it’s the aluminum that is the active sweat-stopping ingredient in most antiperspirants. All the To
After clicking "Publish Post" and tipping off a few national outlets, I go to bed August 13 convinced that I've stumbled on a scoop. And sure enough, the next morning my hunch is confirmed: By sunrise, the post I've written about Sen. Collins and a stunningly undignified radio interview has been picked up by Election Central. In the hours that follow--as the Collins Watch hit counter soars high i
When people think of an alcohol intervention, they tend to think of something that is incredibly serious, and is incredibly emotional.

Hey everyone, We are so excited to tell you that we are reporting live from Maine. That's right, our first family vacation in 2 years and we're headed to a private home in Maine... on a lake... near Bar Harbour and Bangor.

Have a great week and I'll try to post some photos of our son.
Boston.com reports Governor John Baldacci has granted clemency for the first time since he took office way back in 2003. Carol Graves shot and killed her own 71-year old father in 1997 and was sentenced to 17 years in prison. Baldacci's commutation of sentence will, however, reduce that time of service by 18 months. Says the Governor: "Our understanding of battered women's syndrome and post-trauma

Mets pitcher John Maine will visit the Mark Prior List for the second time this season with a bone spur in his shoulder. “I was told the thing I wanted to hear — that nothing could really make it any worse, which is why I wanted to try to pitch through it,” Maine said. “It just hasn’t gone away like I thought it would after all the stuff I’ve tried doing with it.”

There are many fabulous sites along the Ocean Path in Acadia National Park, but it’s hard to beat the views from the very end, when you arrive at Otter Point. I’ve done lots of paintings from this location, and I’m sure there are many more to come.
During part of our trip, we stayed at the wonderful Bar Harbor Inn. The Shore Path runs right outside the hotel. I’d take a stroll along the path every day, stopping to sketch a little something along the way. I loved the shape of this bare tree (above), flanked by the bushes.

No trip to Mt. Desert Island is complete without a visit to the Jordan Pond House for lunch or dinner. We worked up an appetite by hiking around the pond first. There’s this fabulous wooden footbridge at the far end of the pond where I stopped to sketch while my husband took some pictures.
This second day of our trip we went to Monhegan Island for the day. All artists need to make a pilgrimage there; you’ve never seen so many artists painting in one place at the same time! We chose the wrong day to go though, with record-breaking heat, no shade in sight, and no ice nor [...]
Since I’m up in Maine painting, I thought in my absence I’d post some of my sketchbook pages from a previous trip up here. Our first stop was Boothbay Harbor, where we had a beautiful view across the Harbor from our hotel room. We took a boat from here to Monhegan Island for a day. [...]

Also, Maine produces more blueberries than any other state.
