Sharing information regarding National Vietnam Veterans’ Day Wreath Laying Ceremony March 29 at 9 am rain or shine.
We took a ride north, as we often do to see what we might see. On this wonderful day, Jim found me 2 long eared owls resting within a bunch of bushes and small trees. One was very hard to see well but the other one was sitting there like he was waiting for me. They are really quite beautiful. I appreciate the helpful nature of birders as there was one helpful kind soul who helped us out quite a bit.

Join local authors Robert Fitzgibbons and Wayne Soini at the Sawyer Free Library on Thursday, March 27 at 5:30 pm for a riveting discussion on their book, Murder in Rockport, Massachusetts: Terror in a Small Town, which sheds new light on two chilling unsolved murders that shook the small seaside town in the 1930s.
On May 21, 1932, Finnish tailor Arthur Oker was brutally murdered in his shop in Rockport, sending shockwaves through the community. Just over a year later, on Halloween night in 1933, Swedish immigrant and fellow churchgoer Augusta Johnson was slain in her home, deepening the town’s fear and sparking an exhaustive investigation. Authorities searched every house, interviewed 2,500 households, and even enlisted the help of a mystic—yet the crimes remained unsolved.
Through newly uncovered state police archives, Fitzgibbons and Soini reveal long-lost details about the murders, the extensive efforts to solve them, and a surprising suspect who emerged decades later.
Registration is required at sawyerfreelibrary.org. For more information, contact jtravers@sawyerfreelibrary.org.
