Dark Clouds and diamonds on the ocean
On Monday, the dark clouds surrounding the Magnolia Pier, and guess what, no rain.

Good evening friends and vendors! This week we’ve hit the ground running with a social media campaign we hope will catch some eyes and entice some shoppers. Attached is a PDF flyer which you are welcome to post on your social media platforms this week and encourage sharing and liking and tagging by all your followers. This flyer has also been boosted on our facebook and shared to our Instagram. I’ve never met anyone who doesn’t love a discount! Let’s try to kick this party up a notch!
And if you’re on our facebook page, check out and share the new videos posted last week! One from 1623 Studios show “Cape Ann Today” and another live video from us on Sunday morning!
Orders have already started to roll in, so we are hoping for another great week! Stay cool out there! See you Sunday!

Some Grocery Store Restrictions Lifted by State
As you may have heard me mention on the podcast, the Massachusetts Department of Health lifted some of the restrictions placed on grocery stores which were previously in place to help alleviate the spread of the coronavirus. Stores may now allow reusable bags and may increase capacity to 50% of permitted occupancy. It’s important to remember individual stores may chose to put some of their own guidelines in place which should be respected when you plan to shop. It will be a relief to be able to use the reusable bags again (if I can find them in the way back of the trunk of the car where they have been hibernating for all these months).
Some guidelines remain, including morning shopping hours set aside for seniors, which will be a relief for many. Masks, of course, are still required. More information can be found here: https://www.nbcboston.com/news/local/massachusetts-rescinds-coronavirus-grocery-store-restrictions-what-you-need-to-know/2158724/
In addition, information can be found on the state website.
Including a random picture of the Allison Carol just because I do not have artful photos of reusable grocery bags……..
Light Painting GMG
I have begun to experiment with light painting. These are examples of early attempts. I have quite a way to go, but what do you think of the GMG logo idea?
