Far Out in the Harbor

Far out in the harbor in the pink dusk

of a late June day, lies a schooner fast

to her anchor beneath the first quarter moon.

The softness of the scene mesmerizes me

and I imagine I can hear the rigging softly

click and ring against the swaying masts.

I quietly breathe in time to the gently

breaking surf. The nearby sounds of the Fiesta

are dampened by my meditation;

I am drawn into the temple of the harbor.

Mark your calendar:  Thursday, July 5 at Rocky Neck Art Colony for Nights on the Neck and the closing reception for Horses and Other Abstract Notions, paintings by Judy Wilburn and Miss Lyn Cardinal at Khan Studio at the GMG Gallery.  Make a night of it.  The first performance – African Drumming with Mamadou – starts at 5:00 at Keith Trefry Memorial Park.  My all time favorite, Bird Mancini will be at Imagine from 6:45-7:30.  Judy’s and Lyn’s closing reception is from 7:00-9:00 and we have the awesome Tony Gallo Band at Madfish Wharf from 7:45-8:45.  Our own Karen Ristuben winds up the night at The Center.  The complete schedule follows.  Don’t miss it.  And don’t forget to stop by The Center at 6 Wonson Street when you arrive to pick up your Scavenger Hunt card.  Also, think about having dinner at Madfish Grille or The Rudder, two of the sponsors of this year’s NOTN.

Horrible’s Parade Disney Themed

Marching Opportunity

From Judy Mckinnon Cape Ann Travel Service;

What I’m looking for with regards to the parade is two things:
At least 6 kids between 10-14:   Two to hold banner and wave with a Mickey hand, 4 more to walk and hand out brochures, throw candy (to people/not at). 🙂
And at least 6 little ones between 4-10 that have Disney character costumes (i.e., Buzz Lightyear, Cinderella, Alice in Wonderland) to dress as Disney characters and walk.
I have a couple of costumes (Princess Aurora, Cinderella, Pocahontas, tourist) for little ones – size 4 and size 6) that they could use if need be.
My e-mail address is judy@capeanntravelservices.com .  We’d treat all to a pizza party after July 15th for all volunteers.
