I'm Marty Luster, a retired attorney and politician. In 2010 my wife, mother-in-law, dog and I relocated from Central NY to Gloucester. I hope my photographs and poetry(?) reflect my love for this place and her people.

Good Morning Gloucester 
O.K. Now I’m going to sound real stupid. The nets I have always seen are always held open with the doors & they have a cod end. Please tell me what I am looking at? Or have I just lost my mind.
