So, snow?

Winter walk wondering if it will stick to the 1-3″ forecast or not.

photos: Conditions at 4pm Jan 6, 2024. Windy chimes; pretty snow divots dot Long Beach from a brief snow pass earlier in the day (surprise to me because I was thinking conditions would change after midnight); and newish bench at Cape Ann Motor Inn overlook.

Above The Fold Exhibit At Cape Ann Museum

Posted on by Pat D

If you want to stroll through a significant portion of Gloucester’s social history, do not miss the Above the Fold exhibit running now through March 17 2024 at the Cape Ann Museum. I have always had a special interest in newspapers and photojournalism so this opportunity could not be missed. The curators have done an amazing job culling through the thousands of images and selecting a thorough “slice of life” for several local photojournalists here in Gloucester (though Essex, Rockport and Manchester are not forgotten).

My personal favorite photo is by Josh Reynolds from 1997 from the Schooner Lettie G. Howard during a Mayor’s Cup schooner race. I love that Mr. Reynolds commented that a goal of his was to have one of his photos displayed at the Cape Ann Museum…..wish granted! It was hard to select a favorite there are so many snapshots in time for your consideration.

Remember also there are several ways for you to visit with free admission on Jan 20-21 Gloucester’s So Salty event; First Fridays, Second Saturdays and passes at the Sawyer Free Library. Do it! I don’t think you will be sorry.
