The area is teaming with wildlife this year, that is for sure. We have had a snapping turtle hanging around for a couple of weeks and are hoping that she laid her eggs on our loam pile. We have named her Winifred. She was hanging around our front step for a day or so and even ate some lettuce that I very carefully set near her.
The Round Pond Chronicles of Adelaide Butman
We were allowed to walk with the boys around the quadrangle between football practice and supper. The lucky couple got the Spoon Holder. This was an unused doorway facing the tennis courts, just a little removed from the beaten track. There was a lively competition for that desirable spot.

Waldoboro Voices 'That Was The Waldoboro Blueberry Juice'
The way Deirdre Haren sees it, taking logged land, littered with stumps, is better than running a tractor over pastureland and dealing with pasture weed for the rest of your life.

I have some unfortunate and frustrating news to share with you. As of June 4, all libraries within the state of Maine will be experiencing a temporary statewide interruption to our interlibrary loan service. This means that we are now unable to place any requests for materials (books, books on CD, DVDs, library of things, etc.) with any other library.

Midcoast Matters Beware The Toe-Biter!
The weather is warm, almost summer like to Maine kids, and what these black fly immune children like most is mud. Ponds with squishy edges that guarantee their feet will get wet. Ponds filled with small animals just begging to be caught. Ponds like Haybale at Hidden Valley Nature Center where local fourth grade classes have been spending their May field trip exploring the macroinvertebrates that lay beneath the surface.
Round Pond
Our area is fortunate to have businesses such as J. Edward Knight that are civic minded in giving to the community.
Characters of the County: A Slice of Nick Krunkkala’s Life
Certain things lend themselves to sharing, but there’s something special about food that brings people together. No one knows that better than Nick Krunkkala, the owner of Oysterhead Pizza Co., at 189 Main St. in Damariscotta. While the lifelong food lover shares his culinary passions with the public, he is also an avid pop-culture fan, national champion lacrosse player, and father of two daughters.

Paper Pets: Prancing Through Life with Lily
Confidently I can say, all my life I’ve loved dogs: big dogs, small dogs, medium dogs, even big cats on occasion. Their often-scruffy fur, wagging tails, and goofy smiles are just a few of the many quirks that fill me with endless amounts of joy. So little did I know that the day I decided to adopt my wet-nosed companion, Lily, I was in fact getting a dog disguised as none other than … a goat.
