Vignola, in the Old Port, Portland.

Spring had come to Portland. The city’s crab apple trees were about to bloom and shower some streets with their white, pale-pink, and carmine blossoms. The historic Old Port was starting to regain its nightlife after a Dickensian winter during which city dwellers negotiated the steep snow drifts that bordered the sidewalks and scuttled about the icy cobblestone streets and dark alleyways.

Skipper

Skipper is a salty little dog. He lives on Hodgdon Island down Boothbay way, where the local dockwallopers allow him to think he’s in charge of the waterfront. In reality he isn’t, because deep down inside they know and he knows that he has a fundamental flaw: the place of his birth. Born in Arkansas and shifted about for reasons unknown, Skipper was rescued from a pound in that state and eventually brought to Maine.
