Rockport has stuff going on 365 days of the year. It’s not like they roll up the sidewalks in the winter. But the official demarcation into the true summer season is the opening of the Rockport Information Booth. Don’t tell me you’ve lived here your entire life and never stopped in.
Here, Peter Webber is performing the premier, annual, first rights of summer, by hanging Mister and Misses Bathroom sign by the entrance to the Information Booth. Now, and throughout the summer, the booth will be fully manned with experts in all things Rockport, (and all of Cape Ann). And if you have a question about gender, make sure to turn right in Rockport. OK, I know I ask this every year but am I the only one who thinks that when they see this sign when entering Rockport?
The other reason to stop is to admire the flowers planted by Nan Blue at the base of the sign. She has placed a multiplicity of plantings which are timed to flower throughout the summer finishing off with Montauk Daisy (my favorite.)
Good Morning Gloucester 
You are one “f’d” up Scientist! I mean that in a good way! 🙂

Paul, I have to say that I never would have seen the “question about gender turn right here” aspect of the signage, but now that’s all I’ll ever see – thanks! Great post

All right! One down, I need everyone to see it. Once it is in your brain you cannot get it out. I already have T-Shirts printed up with the sign:
I just need a snappy saying to put on the back. My daughter has come up with “Turn Right for Package Check in Rockport.”
or
“Need Your Package Checked? Turn Here”. Every time I come up the hill I think of another one. Some not so good, (my family nods head in unison.)
