Time to Reflect. I asked a friend to take some photos of my boys down at the Marine Railways the other day and I fooled around taking some of my own shots while there. This reflection in the puddle caught my eye.

I recently picked up my newest notecards from Cape Ann Giclee (recently moved operations to 127 Eastern Ave Suite A in the Cape Ann Marketplace) and I am thrilled to share them with you. I always trust my paper printing to James at Cape Ann Giclee! If you’ve gone to the drugstore to buy your cards recently, you know Pat D’s Photos notecards offer a great value at $3.50 each or $3 each for 4 or more. I’ll plan to be back in the shop Sunday Sept 28 from 11-3 and will be excited to share my photography trip stories with you.






The Sawyer Free Library is proud to host Branded: Gloucester’s Hidden History of Enemy Aliens on Saturday, September 27 from 2:00 to 4:00 p.m. The event will take place in the Library’s (brand new!) Community Room located on the ground floor level.
Join Gloucester native and writer Maria Millefoglie as she uncovers a little-known chapter of local history in her presentation Italian Immigrant: A Story of Allegiance, Loss, and Belonging in World War II.
Drawing on archives, historic newspapers, and community stories, Millefoglie reveals how World War II reshaped Gloucester’s Sicilian and Italian immigrant families. While hundreds of young men proudly enlisted in the Army, Navy, and Coast Guard, others in their households were labeled “enemy aliens,” banned from the waterfront, and stripped of their livelihoods. During this time, the U.S. Navy requisitioned some of Gloucester’s finest fishing vessels for minesweeping and patrol duty, even as German U-boats prowled the Atlantic.
Through storytelling, timelines, and photographs, Millefoglie brings to life the sacrifices of fishermen pressed into naval service, the struggles of families torn between loyalty to their new country and ties to their homeland, and the resilience of women who held households together amid fear and loss.
This presentation not only pays tribute to the past but also offers timely reflections on how history echoes in today’s debates about immigration and belonging.
This event is the first project under Preserving Cape Ann’s Ethnic Cultural Heritage, part of the broader Down the Fort: A Documentary and Archive Project, which works to capture and honor the immigrant and ethnic experiences that have long shaped Cape Ann’s cultural fabric.
Register for the presentation on Library’s calendar at sawyerfreelibrary.org.

The Sawyer Free Library is located at 2 Dale Avenue in Gloucester. For details on all the Library’s services and upcoming programming visit: sawyerfreelibrary.org.

I just love that the word ginormous has officially been added to the dictionary, don’t you?

I don’t care what anyone says- soft shell lobster meat is much sweeter.

I am organizing a blood drive on October 11th for Boston Children’s Hospital. So many of us on Cape Ann had benefited from the top notch care available at Children’s. We are so fortunate to be so close to this amazing hospital and the doctors and nurses who care for our children. The Bloodmobile will be parked on Railroad Ave next to CrossFit Cape Ann. There’s plenty of parking since Shaw’s is gone.
I would greatly appreciate your spreading the word on Good Morning Gloucester. This is such a great opportunity to give not only a pint of blood but a thank you to Children’s.

~ The Cut Live ~

Thursday it’s The Far Out and Residual Groove up on The Cut stage! We are VERY excited for this one. If you love to say, “I saw them when…” about bands after they blow up, we highly suggest coming to this show. Both of these bands are on an upwards trajectory at a breakneck pace. Our prediction is they won’t be playing intimate rooms like ours for much longer… There are still tickets available. Doors at 7pm. Show at 7:30pm.
Friday Fortune makes their debut on The Cut stage. We know this band has quite the following, and we’re very eager for all the Friends of Fortune to see what an incredible venue The Cut is. Seats are sold out for this show, but there are still some GA Standing tickets available. Doors at 7pm. Show at 8pm.
We will also have Keith Crocker live in the restaurant from 7pm to 10pm. Come hang a the bar with a beer and a burger and free live music!
Saturday we are thrilled to have Hey Nineteen – A tribute to Steely Dan – back up on The Cut stage. Tickets are going fast, but there are still some available! Doors at 7pm. Show at 8pm.
Then we’ll have a live DJ in the restaurant from 9pm-close. Follow us on social media for pop-up DJ updates!
Sunday it’s Troy Ramey in the venue. If you love Chris Stapleton or Zach Bryan, this show is for you. There are still some seats available for this show that blends soulful music with storytelling. Doors at 7pm. Show at 7:30pm.
We’ll also have ALL the football on our 9 TVs, so make sure you stop by to watch the games and enter to win a VIP Experience at our Super Bowl Party!
As always, Little Sister will be serving their Best of The North Shore award-winning burgers (and so much more) starting at 5pm each night and now starting at noon on Saturdays and Sundays. Come early and grab food before the show or stay late and refuel after dancing!
