Magnolia Landing after sunset

After walking at sunset, noticed that the sky turned very dark except for a line over the ocean.  Had my day lights on and saw the lights were shining on a couple kayaks still tied up.  So pretty.  We are so lucky to live here.

Playing near the Blynman Bridge

On Thursday afternoon the bridge was up for a large sailboat.  Looked over and noticed lots of ducks about to play in the current.

North Shore favorite and acclaimed singer-songwriter Chelsea Berry returns to Hammond Castle Museum for two special holiday concerts on December 6 and 7.Presented in the Castle’s historic Great Hall, these performances offer an intimate, atmospheric way to begin the winter season.

Berry — known for her soaring, soulful vocals and evocative songwriting — will be joined by celebrated cellist Kristen Miller, whose rich, cinematic arrangements have become a beloved complement to Berry’s sound. Together, they will perform selections from Berry’s holiday album Ring the Bells, along with seasonal pieces and songs that reflect themes of joy, light, and togetherness.

Saturday, December 6 at 7:00pm — Evening Performance
A classic December night in the Great Hall. Guests may choose a VIP ticket option that includes preferred seating, a meet-and-greet with the artist, and a complimentary glass of champagne. The Castle will be fully decorated for the season, creating an elegant backdrop for this signature holiday event.

Sunday, December 7 at 5:30pm — Early-Evening Holiday Concert
A beautifully lit winter performance in the glow of the Castle’s December décor. This early-evening concert offers the full program in a slightly more relaxed atmosphere, with special pricing available for guests under 18. A perfect way to close the weekend and welcome the holiday season.

Chelsea Berry tours nationally and has become a fixture of the North Shore music scene, known for her dynamic live performances and her ability to command a room with both power and subtlety. Her annual Cape Ann holiday concerts have become a local tradition, drawing audiences who return year after year for the warmth, musicianship, and sense of connection she brings to the stage.
