Cemetery Tow Zone

Posted on by Pat D

So, this sight in the middle of the Seaside/Locust Grove cemetery brought a few questions to mind. With tongue firmly in cheek: Shouldn’t it be “resident” only parking? Isn’t everyone already “ parked”? Who’s issuing tickets, Casper the Ghost? Just how do these people pay their tickets?

Outdoor Seating at Tonno

Posted on by Nichole S.

I had such a nice time sitting at a sidewalk table at Tonno yesterday. We were lucky to score a comfy sofa and chairs at a fire pit table…and also lucky that the rain held off while we were there. We shared a couple of bar bites…the meatballs and calamari….and also a shrimp flatbread pizza along with one yummy cocktail each. I am so appreciative of the hard work that has gone into creating the beautiful outdoor dining spaces in our wonderful city. I can’t wait to see what Main Street looks like as summer is in full swing. You can learn more about Tonno here

Barns Along the Byway (Almost)

Posted on by Pat D

This BEAUTIFUL barn is not along the Essex Coastal Scenic Byway, which is my normal rule for these “Barns Along the Byway” but I just had to share this gem. It’s fairly close to the Byway on Water Street in Ipswich. It appears to be part of the Glazier-Sweet house property though I am not finding too much about this barn yet. There just has to be a story here! Simply gorgeous.

Cape Ann Community

Come one, come all and be ready to have some fun!

Join the Sawyer Free Library this Saturday, June 19 at 11:00 am outside in the Amphitheatre for live performance by musical group “KNOCK ON WOOD“

Knock on Woodis a high-energy, family-friendly acoustic folk-rock duo, featuring singer-songwriter Howie Newman on guitar, lead vocals and harmonica. Howie is joined by Joe Kessler, one of the top fiddlers in the area. They also play mandolin and sing backup vocals. The duo performs Classic Rock covers and funny original songs (suitable for all ages). It’s a very lively show with great musicianship, nice vocal harmonies and a little humor here and there.

This program is supported in part by a grant from the Gloucester Cultural Council, a local agency which is supported by the Mass Cultural Council, a state agency.
