My View of Life on the Dock
So many people telling me they can’t find the link.
So here it is- The worlds greatest invention that everyone I know who got one absolutely loves theirs and can’t believe they’ve lived this long without-
Here’s the link to get one with two different style lids, one open and one with a locking lid- Buy it on Amazon by clicking this link $17.95
They are just like the YETI ones that sell for three times as much and only give you the one non-locking lid. $17.95 is like stealing this 30 oz tumbler!
Anna Solomon gave a reading of Leaving Lucy Pear to a rapt audience last night. A mad dash for chairs was had to accommodate the crowd of friends, fans, and family and by evening’s end, the well wishers were overflowing out the front door of the cultural center. Anna grew up in Gloucester and the historical novel is set on Cape Ann during the 1920s. Congratulations and best wishes to Anna for wonderful success with her beautiful book! Read more abut Leaving Lucy Pear here.
Time for Lucy’s annual check-up with Dr. Kate Dodge at Cape Ann Veterinary Hospital
Stop taking those stupid pictures and get me outa here!

Old Cold Tater with Chick & Ellen
concert at 7pm, tonight, Wednesday, August 3
Antonio Gentile Bandstand, Stage Fort Park.

What seat should you pick at the HarborWalk Summer Cinema? Don’t worry–you’ll find a spot even though people stream into I4 C2 as early as 5:30PM to square away their seating, often novel. A family with an inflatable pool is a regular sight. Blankets are thrown down pell-mell. Kids zig zag a sea of boundaries as they might a sandy beach, which means your stuff is stepped on. It’s all good! There’s a happy community picnic vibe. Soon after 6PM Aurelia Nelson from North Shore Radio 104.9 hosts pre-screening festivities. Rob Newton, Cape Ann Community Cinema, presides; the movie line ups he’s selected have been big hits.
Gloucester = food.
Our family takes a break from cooking and buys dinner from the vendors and/or take out from a downtown business. Once house guests treated us to a lobster dinner AND movie al fresco at Blue Collar Lobster, Gloucester House. It can be done. Has anyone tried it with Topside Grill?
Opposing Fans enjoy a peacful ride on the Water shuttle, operated by Cape Ann Harbor Tours.
Ancestor of General John Bell Hood of the Confederate Army.
Florida Marine Researcher, visiting fishing towns up the eastern seaboard. He has also done some research on the Bigeye Tuna migration.
After a couple of days of dicey weather The Force has delivered us perfect a outdoor movie-going night. FREE screening of Star Wars: The Force Awakens, presented by Building Center. Refreshments at 6pm. Movie starts at dark. 65 Rogers Street (I4-C2)! Be there to awaken the Force within you! Special thanks to Aurelia Nelson of North Shore 104.9 for keeping Movie Night Alive!
Monday as I was runnning (ok…more of a wog….well….military shuffle?) I was holding my phone and it slipped out of my sweaty little hands and landed face down on the concrete. At this point I began to pray to the iphone gods, which in my defense, has worked in prior mishaps, but apparently I have used up my iphone-a-friend requests because when I picked it up this happened….
Thankfully, since I can’t have nice things…there is Al Millefoglie at iCracked.com who not only replaced the screen but did it in an hour! I dropped it off because he lives down the street but he will even schedule a time to come to you and fix it fast! So if you are like me and are prone to iphone mishaps CALL HIM! You can also check out his facebook page! Thanks so much Al!!
This is such a great idea and I am so thrilled that the Red Sox have put these around the park courtesy of RaceCancer Foundation.

I was shoveling bait Sunday morning and when I tipped over a barrel of salted pogies the barrell hit just right and sents a stream of rotten pogie juice up onto my chest and in my face.
It stung pretty badly and I ran to the lobster tanks to flush out my eyes and wash off my face but THAT STINK!
It was all over my shirt and the smell was just emanating straight up into my nostrils. Make you wanna puke kinda smell.
Just so happens Paulie couldn’t have had better timing. he brought me this fresh new Art, Rocks! Dry Fit T-Shirt, thank Paulie!
Stinky Shirt-
Nice Fresh Art, Rocks! Shirt-
