“Whenever I find myself growing grim about the mouth; whenever it is a damp, drizzly November in my soul; whenever I find myself involuntarily pausing before coffin warehouses, and bringing up the rear of every funeral I meet . . . then, I account it high time to get to sea as soon as I can.” –Moby-Dick

I'm Marty Luster, a retired attorney and politician. In 2010 my wife, mother-in-law, dog and I relocated from Central NY to Gloucester. I hope my photographs and poetry(?) reflect my love for this place and her people.

Marty, another classic and it appears to be low tide so a little more work to pull to get things up Classic Moby Dick quote too! I seem to recall George Morey in Lanes cove along with Duke would go out and time it around the tides when possible with the dories to sides to waterline so full! – less pulling to get the catch up on the docks back then pulled the baskets up by hand or via hand pulled Pulley. We be down helping to recover what fell in! 🙂 Dave Got some keepers too fresh as it gets!
