Do you have a goal that hangs out there on the horizon, tempting you, but always just a little out of reach? Perhaps there is a bit of fear wrapped up in the goal. You say, “I can’t” when you really can, but just haven’t – yet. As with any big project, we can break … Read More
Post by LAC member, Abby Gordon On Wednesday, seventeen LAC women took advantage of a beautifully sunny day to hike Tumbledown Mountain. This easy day hike is near the town of Weld in Franklin County. We spotted cars so we could start at the Loop Trailhead (about 5.6 miles down Byron Road) and finish up … Read More
Post by Alicia Heyburn Is it still called a hike if we are not climbing a mountain? I like hiking, whether along a river or up a mountain, but Wednesday’s Alewife Hike was particularly appealing because it was long and secluded (although a bit buggy), while only minutes from Maine’s largest urban area – very convenient for … Read More

For many, this was our first outing with the Ladies Adventure Club – but you would … Read More
Where to start… I could write a dry outline of all that we did over our weekend in Oquossuc, but that would be well, dry. Instead I’ll try to capture the impressions I had that bounced around Mooselookmeguntic Lake and Bald Mountain over two nights and two days. Spending time with a group of like-minded, … Read More
This short post was written by LAC member Ann T. who is a surfer of both North American coasts and of many (maybe not many, but at least more than a few, I think) other countries as well. She organized the morning of surfing at Gooch’s Beach with Aquaholics. Everyone caught a wave and got … Read More
Hi all: You may know that I have a thing for honey bees. I’m mostly enamored with them and sometimes I’m really pissed off at them. But I’m always in awe of them. Did you know that a hive of bees must fly 55,000 miles to produce a pound of honey and that one bee colony can produce 60 to 100 pounds of honey per year (I … Read More
Hi All: I wasn’t able to join in on Saturday’s adventure to Harbor Island (I couldn’t be a derelict sister and miss my brother’s engagement party!) so LAC member Meredith Wood-Masteka wrote this recap in my stead. Sounds like it was a fabulous day. Big thanks to the hosts, Megan and Lev. From Meredith: 13 … Read More
