Quite An Honor- Thanks Sally Goldenbaum
Sally Goldenbaum a national bestselling author was kind enough to write in a little blurb in the acknowledgements about Good Morning Gloucester. She writes inside the front cover of her new book “Moon Spinners “Joey Ciaramitaro and his Good Morning Gloucester blog, a daily feed which provides grist for my writing mill and keeps me in touch with life on Cape Ann.”
Pretty cool! and she even spelled my last name right!
As an aside. I know that you’re not supposed to start a sentence with and, but that’s the way it came out when I was thinking it and I feel like when I write I’m having a conversation with you, my reader. So all the spelling and grammar nazis can all go to hell. Thanks a bunch Sally!
I spoke to the great people at the Bookstore of Gloucester at 61 Main Street in Gloucester and they are ordering copies as i type this to have in stock if you are interested in buying it.

Georges By Night- The Total Package
Last night was the total package- fantastic food,fantastic music but most importantly fantastic company. Thanks Dean for inviting us to a great evening. It was a pleasure meeting Steve Asaro and wife Chris- what great Gloucester people- unpretentious, fun people who have 5 kids at home and still get out and enjoy themselves. We had a blast.
Look for the next George’s By Night special evening and reserve your space right away. It was a packed house. I suspect because the first one was so successful and featuring music by Chelsea Berry can’t hurt!. I’m sure Dean will let me know when the next one is so y’all can get a reservation.

Friendship Carriage Tour In Rockport With Ruth and Curley
Ruth and Curley can be found in either Rockport or Salem and can cater to someone’s wishes for a carriage ride before and after weddings or for special events. Imagine this- you take your girlfriend or wife out for a nice dinner and then have Ruth pick you up after dinner for a nice carriage ride where you pop the question or just rekindle a little romance.

I first met Ruth when she became the sole female contestant in the Passports Rogue Burger Challenge where she put in a very respectable showing even beating many men twice her size. Unbeknown to me Ruth had just gotten out of a yoga class and wandered into Passports off the street all disheveled so when it came time to handing out nicknames for the Rogue Burger Challenge the nickname “Homeless Ruth” was born.
Here is some video from that day-
Here the burgers were presented-
