We enjoyed our first camping trip of the summer on Stetson
Pond (aka Pleasant Lake), at our friends "camp". Al Hepler
and Bruce Hepler...two buddies of mine and friends from my
Orono High School days are lucky enough to have lots next
to eachother on this great swimming and boating lake in
central Maine. We bought a new 5 person tent at LL Bean
en route to accommodate our expanding family. The boys
slept like logs until the sun came up at 4:50 am. Time to
fish!

P-Marcus

Here is a guest entry by Liam, of his favorite topic, his
little brother, Marcus Rennie. Taken in Orono, on his
grandfather Jim's lawn.

What a Charmer

Here Liam is giving his audience an idea of
the length of his snake. He was bitten by this
Garter 4 or 5 times the first day that he caught
him, but on day 2, the snake had grown
accustomed to Liam and bit no more. Liam
brought him (her?) to the Kindergarten picnic
last night and had kids lining up to touch it.

Liam's Serpent

Liam's wish finally came true. He found a 2 foot Garter
Snake in the woods near his Grandpa Jim's house in Orono,
Maine. We shuttled him back to southern Maine in a pickle
barrel with the understanding that we'd release him the next
day. We are still in negotiations.
