Hi Everyone,
Happy August!
This is an reminder that our meeting will be held on Monday, August 13, 9-11 at the Annie. The first 1/2 hour will be a social time. Please bring your own coffee or tea!
We will continue our custom of having everyone “check in” and share what they would like to about their work.
Newcomers are always welcome. See you then.

Tomorrow, Sunday, at noon is the dedication of the Gus Foote Park. Following the dedication, I will be giving a mini-talk about the butterfly gardens planted along the Harbor Walk. A yummy clam chowder tasting is planned, provided by the Gloucester House Restaurant. At 12:45, we’ll Walk the Walk with Mayor Kirk. The theme of Sunday’s walk is Gloucester’s maritime heritage.
Sunny skies are predicted for tomorrow–perfect weather for strolling through the gardens while listening to sea stories. I hope you’ll come join us!

If you’re at the Blues Fest, you just heard the best Zydeco ever performed in Gloucester — maybe the world! Watch the video and see what Dikki has to say about Gloucester.
New Orleans Blues Great Kenny Neal says this is the first festival he’s hung out at for a very long time. Usually he just shows up for his set. Watch the video and see why. And you can find out how to get a satin pillowcase with Kenny on it!
There’s still time to catch some great music at the very first Blues Festival. Sun is out. Music is HOT! Seven hours of music to go.
Good Morning Gloucester
