Papa and I took the kids to the Ipswich River Sanctuary during vacation week. It is a great time. The chickadees actually ate seeds from the kids hands. The Vernal Pond was really pretty with frogs and turtles.

My niece went there with her kids last week and asked where can you get the chickadees to eat out of your hand and they said, “everywhere”. I gotta do this. My grampa had five of them plus a nuthatch who ate out of our hands. Such a riot seeing them so up close.
You can rent a canoe at Foote Brothers in Ipswich and have a pleasant paddle.
They drop you off by Topsfield Fairgrounds and you flow gently downstream, merrily merrily.
Life is but a dream.
Good Morning Gloucester
