Meg Lee Pimps G Town

Good morning Joey,
Tried to attempt an opportunity yesterday (Sunday) to stop by "the dock" but knew the chances were slim to none that you’d be there.

One of my coworkers from our China office has been visiting and working in our Boston office for the past 3 weeks. Many of us have been trying to show her a good time during our free time off.

As I knew she would be leaving to go back to China on Tuesday, I wanted to show her one of my favorite places in the world. Sunday I took her and another coworker to Gloucester, and the first stop we made was on Stacey Blvd, at the Fisherman’s Memorial statue. I explained that the statue was pretty much a famous icon in New England parts, and why it was so famous because of what it represented. We got out of the car and climbed thru the snow to take a snapshot.

Driving by St. Peter Sq. I explained the big fiesta that takes place every year. We drove around the Harbor Loop by Fitz Hugh Lane’s place, and then on to East Main St. Hopeful, we pulled into Capt. Joe & Sons only to find it closed (not surprised) I was hoping for my coworker Amphy to meet you and seize a GMG opportunity.

We then went to Eastern Point, and my coworkers were pretty impressed. This pleased me, as one of my coworkers, Jim, is from the lovely Monterey CA area, which is a visually beautiful place. I kept explaining to them that Gloucester is a great place to visit and most ideal in the "on season" and they were definitely able to see that in the "off season."

On to Rocky Neck, where none of the galleries were open, unfortunately. However, I’m hoping my plug on all the great galleries that were there will bring Jim back in the on season.

Back to downtown, Main St., where unfortunately we only hit 2 shops before we had to make our reservation time for dinner. We all scored a purchase at Local Colors, which is a place I love to visit, and I believe Jim will be back to visit.

Our day ended with a fabulous dinner at the Gloucester House, and we took in a killer sunset as we ended our meal.

Until next time Gloucester………………..

Best,
Meg Lee
