When deciding to open up my laptop to begin a new blog, my mind got to thinking…what have I been up to lately? Of course, I could mention the treacherous college applications or hours spent on homework, but as I pulled up my document to write, I instinctively queued up my music. And that’s when…

Littlejohn Preserve
2021 was the summer of the Littlejohn Preserve. A locally-known slice of paradise, the 23-acre preserve is the perfect place to explore the tide pools, go for a swim or run trail laps. This summer, I found myself making an almost daily commute from in-town Yarmouth to Littlejohn Island for a secluded beach day at…

Sheepscot Reversing Falls
This is one of the best play spots around and what makes it even better is that fact that it runs twice a day throughout the year. Unfortunately, one of those times is normally at night. When the wave is at its biggest, the Sheepscot Reversing Falls is best for intermediate boaters since the boils…
