Read excerpt
Property taxes in Woolwich rose 7.8% over last year. Selectmen announced the increase after meeting with their accountant and assessing agent Wednesday afternoon, Sept. 17.

Read excerpt
The weather was nearly perfect the other day when Bo and I revisited Wiscasset’s Cushman Preserve. Located off Birch Point Road, this land trust of over 100 acres is owned by Chewonki Foundation.

Who remembers the Dodge Inn restaurant? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
How many of you remember Dodge Inn, a much-loved steak and seafood restaurant on the banks of the Sheepscot River in North Edgecomb known for its tasty Indian pudding? It was owned by Stanley and Velma Dodge, an older couple when I knew them in the 1980s. The Dodges lived at the end of Fort Road on Davis Island. Their restaurant, which closed over 50 years ago, was just past Donald E. Davey Bridge where Water’s Edge Restaurant is today. These memories came back to me the other day when my friend
