Vacationing for a better world

When you stay at 424 Preble Street a portion of the proceeds is what allows us to give to others.  Our humble home is consistently being updated as time and resources allow, in order to make your stay more enjoyable, as well as to continue to propel our dream.  

Lindsay and I travel as much as life allows to Nicaragua, and soon other 3rd world countries, to teach and perform High Quality High Volume Spay & Neuter services for animals in need.  Please follow our journey as we work to make the world a better place.

424 Preble Street is a special property that sits right in historic Willard Square, South Portland, Maine. We are in the process of researching the deeds and history of the property. We are pretty sure a consistent occupant was most certainly a canine.

Little Dog’s Rhapsody in the Night, Mary Oliver - Dog Songs

He puts his cheek against mine
and makes small, expressive sounds.
And when I’m awake, or awake enough

he turns upside down, his four paws
in the air
and his eyes dark and fervent.

“Tell me you love me,” he says.

“Tell me again.”

Could there be a sweeter arrangement? Over and over
he gets to ask.
I get to tell.

What's new at 424 in 2024?

This year we are looking forward to a fun new paint color outside and much needed trim work!

What color would you pick?
