the tide recede inch by inch

Will this Shocking and Gruesome video of a Great White Shark attack keep Paul Morrison from competing in This Years Blackburn Challenge?

No breakfast at Passports or Sugar Mags, no coffee at Lone Gull.  It may only be temporary but call before wasting a trip.

Eastern Point Day School, formerly St. Mel’s Independent Day School, celebrated the graduation of its first 8^th class that  started Kindergarten in 2003 and has stayed at school through the 8^th grade.  Charles Patrick McManus and James Maino Turner graduated from EPDS  last night, June 14^th, on the front lawn of the school located across from Niles Beach in Gloucester.   The ceremony was highlighted by performances of EPDS alumni, Zachary Magee, who played Pomp and Circumstances on the violin during the procession, and Lily Armstrong, who sang a beautiful a cappella closing song.  Both Patrick and James will be attending St. John’s Prep starting in the fall. 

This celebration marked the culmination of 9 years of hard work by many educators, community members, and parents to transition this formerly independent Catholic school into a non-profit PreK-8^th grade community based school utilizing Cape Ann’s and Massachusetts’s incredible resources to bring learning to  life daily with experiential  curriculum and teaching.  EPDS’s nurturing educational environment also emphasizes community service and involvement for all of its students and families.  The school has accomplished this transition during these very challenging economic times and kept it’s tuition much lower than most private school to give local families a private school option in Gloucester.   For more information about Eastern Point Day School’s full year, homeschool and summer programs, please call 978-283-1700 or visit www.easternpointdayschool.org.

Don’t let your dad down with yet another LAMO Father’s Day present like a Tie, a Weed Whacker, a Rake or something else that by all rights he should beat you over the head with it after all he’s done for you. Or better yet if you know you’ve got a rotten son and/or daughter who would by you a lamo Father’s Day present then call up and order up some of Our Local Boat’s Finest Lobsters for yourself and spend their inheritance!

We will be open at 5AM just like every other day of the summer except 4th of July. I highly suggest that you call in today though and place your order to get exactly the sizes you want.

Right now lobsters are way down in price so help kick up the demand and support your local lobstermen and benefit by being a hero to your dad at the same time. Right now you can buy 1 lb lobsters for cheaper than the price of a large submarine sandwich.

Think about that.

Let’s see- submarine sandwich or lobster…… if you have to think about that for more than 3 seconds you are a dope. It’s lobster baby!

It’s what your Dad wants trust me on this one.

And to all you dads out there- if your son or daughter show up to the house with a weed whacker on Father’s Day- seriously beat them over the head with it and then call the cops. When the cops come to investigate the domestic assault case just explain how brutally out to lunch said offspring was and show them the weed whacker which hopefully at this point is broken in half with the bow still wrapped around it from the force of it coming down on your undeserving offspring’s head.

Call 978-283-1454 and order your lobsters today for Sunday Morning Pickup.
