Happy New Year Thoughts…

First A Short From Some Of The Homies From The HomieCast Crew-

 

Yesterday while scrolling through social media I saw a ton of people using hashtags like #fuck2017 #2017sucked.  I suspect that most of those hashtags were directly related to politics.

This is what I’d like to say- if you have your health, if you are surrounded by people that love you, friends and family, then that is what matters.  We rang out 2017 surrounded by people that love us, that wish good things for us.  For 2018 do yourself a favor and don’t let your year in retrospect be decided in your mind by who is holding office whether it be local, state or federal.  Let it be decided by the wealth in human friendships and love in your life.  In the end that’s what matters.  Be rich in friendships, be rich in love- it brings you a hundred billion times more pleasure than anything else.

We’re so lucky to have such great friends and family.  #focusonthepositive

 

 

1/1/18 Sunrise at 07:12:49 AM

Forty-nine seconds after 7:12 AM today, sunrise occurred for the first time on Cape Ann in twenty-eighteen.

Stella: “No really, I’ll pinch a loaf in the backyard and you let me back in. Go take a photo of sunrise and I’ll go in the kitchen and pee on the floor, thanks.”
Outside for ten minutes. My gloves were off for twenty seconds and they are still stiff 30 minutes later. The sea smoke is hard to capture since it looks like far away clouds but most of the photo is steaming right off the hot 39 F Gulf of Maine.

Enough Said

Stone Cold 001

Overnight the calendar turned to a new year.  It’s a time for reflection.  Some of us had a great 2017 and are sorry to see it go.  Some of us need to start anew and bid good riddance to last year.  Whatever your situation, we hope you have enough.

Enough winter to relish the summer.

Enough sniffling to enjoy good health.

Enough penny pinching to appreciate prosperity.

Enough heartache to feel true joy.

And…… enough New York to savor Gloucester…..

Happy 2018 to all!
