My View of Life on the Dock
One of Chris Orsillo (Trapper) tattoos.
The paw print is a bear paw. He tells me that Orsillo stands for little bear in Italian hence the bear paw. Then he has a claw dangling representing each one of his brothers and the two feathers hanging down represent his parents.

Here’s Doug Opie, skipper of The Broken Arrow with his catch at our doors here at Captain Joe’s. Check out his faithful sidekick Cash in the back window making sure everything is in order.

This is a pretty utilitarian looking scooter. Note the huge seat with storage capacity underneath it. I’m kicking myself for not dropping off a GMG sticker on the seat for the owner before I left.

Although all the seafood dishes are amazing at The Topside Grill, this dessert is worth going in for alone.
A nice after dinner drink or coffee and this and trust me you’ll be in heaven.

Oy! I just read the caption under the photo in the Cape Ann Beacon from The Block Party the other night which calls me Captain Joe.
I can’t even to begin to tell you how embarrassing it is when that happens.
I’m NOT A CAPTAIN! My Grandfather was Captain Joe Ciaramitaro.
A man whose shoes I could never fill.
I’m not Captain Joe, I’m just Joey. The business name is Captain Joe & Sons after my Grandfather and his two sons- my father and uncle. It’s not me other than the fact that Frank and I bought the business from our fathers which is named Captain Joe and Sons.
Maybe I should have made that the title of my blog “I’m Not a Captain”
I appreciate Mark running the photo though it was a nice shot of one of my shots plastered on the wall during the block party.
The Lou and Shirley Interview was great. There are some down to earth Good Folk. You could hear it in their voices how much they have enjoyed their visit to our little community.

So I’m walking down Main Street on my way to The Downtown Block Party wrap up meeting and as I passed Stuff, I had to do a double take.
