More From Maine

I love the beach.  I love the smell.  I love the sounds.  I love to watch the birds and pick up shells.  We had a short time when we actually rented a house on the beach of the Coral Sea and it was wonderful.  I Continue reading →

30 Million Year Old Find

Beth Ann Chiles/ North Carolina/ 26 Comments/ 13567

Imagine how thrilled I was last week when we discovered that the beach at Holden Beach, NC was teeming with fossils. Thanks to the recent dredging in the area (see picture of dredging in progress below) we were privy to a once in a lifetime Continue reading →

It’s All In the Name

Beth Ann Chiles/ Writing/ 14 Comments/ 727

Names are so important, don’t you think? But think about it – one of the most important things about each of us is chosen by someone else. Thankfully I like my name but there are many folks who don’t and have to find creative ways Continue reading →

Another great book by John Green. I have become a huge fan of John Green since my reading of A Fault in our Stars and this book was another that did not disappoint me at all. It was a story of a child prodigy, a lot of anagrams, and a b...
