Some parking available in St. John’s parking lot across from 18 Washington Street. Festive reception to follow.
Thank you!
Since we stopped at Turtle Alley for a special gift, it seemed only fair to also go to Nichols Candy when I needed some special sweets for a baby shower. It always feels so cozy and homey in there and the staff is exceptionally helpful. I successfully selected a bucket of sweet treats for the shower and lingered a bit looking at the tempting treats. Thanks Nichols!
It’s been slow out there, so here are a few current encounters, and some older ones that remind us of the seasons we have left behind.
As our Sunset Club walks Shore Road almost every evening. It never disappoints. The sunsets and of course the people we walk with.

Video/photo mid November sunrise, Wingaersheek Beach: Crossed paths with a lone coyote twice. Saw it cut across the parking lot straight up path 1, turn left across the dunes, and climb up out of sight, heading in the direction of the homes on the bluff. About 40 minutes later, I was surprised to witness it now galloping along the water’s edge over to the rocks, pausing momentarily to check out a beachwalker with a dog emerging from path 1, then exiting path 3. Evidently, it had completed a big circle route.

Back to Black Live and Booty Vortex
The Cut in Gloucester, MA has announced two popular shows are set to return to the North Shore’s latest entertainment venue in February. Back To Black Live: The Music of Amy Winehouse featuring Gloucester native Megan Wolf returns by popular demand to The Cut on February 1st following September’s wildly successful show, and Booty Vortex, known as Boston’s Finest Funk and Disco Band, will play the groovy tunes of the 70s on February 15.

Booty Vortex is a collection of the finest, funkiest musicians from across New England ever to play the groovy tunes from the ’70s. The heat these players/singers bring is guaranteed to knock audiences off their feet. Gold Finger, Brass Tornado, Slip-N-Slide, Meat Hammer, Pixi Stix, Super Sonic, Huggy Bear, Minty Fresh, Baby Gold, and Silky Smooth all come together to form Boston’s Finest Funk & Disco Band.

The ocean reflected my mood one day recently: a little bit blue and a little bit roiled up! Maybe you need a dose……
Crazy to think. All those practices, all those tournaments all over the place. And it leads to this. A final game for the State Championship with a great group of student athletes. ❤️
