Hi Joey,
What would we do without Good Morning Gloucester? I took my mother and my boys to watch the Manchester-By-The-Sea Cardboard Boat Regatta today (SOO fun btw!!) and then went to the Studio in Rocky Neck with a friend this evening for a couple of drinks. I am 100% certain I would not have known to do either if it weren’t for Good Morning Gloucester!! Thanks for all you and your contributors do to help keep us informed…and amused!!! Now, if you could only make the Sox win.
Sincerely,
Nichole
On Tuesday evening, October 15th, at 7 pm, I will be giving my program, “The Pollinator Garden,” at the Beverly Public Library. Following the rhythm of the seasons, I present a slide show (with over 100 photos!) and lecture demonstrating how to create a welcoming haven for bees, birds, butterflies, and other wildlife. Native plants and examples of organic and architectural features will be discussed based on their value to particular vertebrates and invertebrates. I hope you’ll come join me!

It was a magical night at Fenway last night!! Sox with walk off win…The place went nuts!
You’ve just got to hear these guys to believe it! The Slide Brothers’ only New England performance this year is Saturday, November 2 at Beverly’s Larcom Theatre, that Fly Amero describes as “a fully restored, gorgeous facility with hand-painted tin, beautifully designed curtains, world-class stage lighting and, well… the list could go on and on … The sound (under the direction of Will Hunt) was nothing shy of spectacular…” (see full post).
Best of all, it’s right next door — about 20 minutes away — in downtown Beverly. And you can now get Premium Seats to the next 2 concerts for less than the cost of Standard Seats if you click on this link now. Premium seats sell out first, so we’re telling you before we tell the rest of the world. You know you want tickets to both concerts, so get them now!

Ever wonder when you will; Bite the dust, kick the can, take the dirt nap, etc.
Below are my results. I’m sure there are people who want no part of knowing when they will pass. I have no problem with knowing. I think it’s a good idea to get a heads up. This way you know when to Max out your Credit cards.
I can live with 72 but 80 would be better. I guess I will have to quit smoking those little cigars, stop eating pop tarts, stop drinking coffee, etc…

Hi Joey,
I was looking through some lobstering images on the web and came across these images of someone lobstering on a SUP. I was really surprised to see that these were taken off of Cape Ann, when I clicked through and read the post!

good morning, perhaps it would be nice to have an alert that today the entire length of Centennial from the light to the bridge will be closed 7 – 5pm for repaving. I’m betting many will fail to get their cars out for this event.
and Yes I’m up early for this, I work at Varian. they seem to be starting at the light end near the high school.

In the Village at West Gloucester most units are sold with much of the construction winding down. Turkeys and deer apparently now feel comfortable returning. Saturday morning behind a unit on Curlew Court a young deer and a turkey were looking for their own space.

Wild Sunset Friday Night From Len Burgess
Martin Del Vecchio submits-
The Stop & Shop A+ Rewards program is one of the best ways for local schools to raise money. Each year, local schools raise thousands of dollars for enrichment programs, classroom materials, etc.
Once you register your card to benefit a school, the school receives money for each A+ item you buy. It costs you nothing, and it doesn’t even affect your gas points.
It’s free money for schools; who could have a problem with that?
To register:
Following are the codes for the schools in Gloucester:
06169 Beeman Memorial Elementary
07891 East Gloucester Elementary
07543 Eastern Point Day School
06922 Faith Christian School
08343 Ralph B. O’Maley Innovation Middle School
06541 Plum Cove School
06555 Veterans Memorial School
06439 West Parish School
You must register your card each year, so if you haven’t done so for this school year, please do it now.
Thanks!

Joel Brown has written more than 400 articles for the Boston Globe, many of them on North Shore treasures, including the launch of the Ardelle, the restoration of the Adventure and the rebuilding of the Lane’s Cove Fish Shack. His book, THE ESSEX COASTAL BYWAY GUIDE, follows the new Essex Heritage route along the shore from Lynn to Newburyport, exploring the unique historic, cultural and natural resources along the way.
