Reflections at Brace Cove and Niles Pond
Our plane was delayed 7 hours en route to Cincinnati for Christmas. Fortunately, we were able to stay in contact with the airline from home. My daughter Liv and I went for a walk along the berm dividing Brace Cove and Niles Pond while waiting to leave. As we were looking at the sun setting over Niles Pond, we by chance turned towards Brace Cove and were captivated by the vibrant colors reflected in the windows of the home on the point. Magically a Harbor Seal swam onto the scene and scootched up on the rock and he too, caught the last of the sun’s fleeting light!

Festive Cran Raspeberry Punch
Rest up GMG FOB’s, ther is only five days until we say goodbye to 2013 and hello to 2014! Who is ready to toast the new year in with a delicious adult beverage? Now that the silver, china and crystal are washed and neatly stacked back in the china cabinet, it’s time to switch gears and start planning our New Years Eve Celebrations! Several years ago my girlfriend Kerri served a punch during a holiday party that was dangerously delicious and refreshing! It was and still is a big hit among my friends every time she makes it. Last weekend I snapped this photo of her whipping up a special batch for us during our friend Tanya’s annual Cookie Gala. Kerri’s recipe is easy to prepare, and can be tweaked to your likeness in strength by adding more or less alcohol. I think this festive punch is the perfect adult drink to serve to guests on New Years Eve, while waiting for the Crystal Ball to drop! Cheers to the New Year!

Looking for Seine Boat Rowers
Joey,
The Gloucester Gig Rowers are starting a new intense race and conditioning program and we are looking to reach out to the Seine boat rowers who might want to train with us this season. Could you introduce me to folks in the Seine boat community?

The Grub At Sista Felicia’s
We shucked the Topnecks in record time this year. Got the assembly line thing down to a science and Felicia’s Polpo was the best she ever did. Hope y’all had a great Christmas.
Good Morning Gloucester
