Congratulations To Kim Smith “Beauty on the Wing wins Best Documentary!”

Posted on by Joey Ciaramitaro

Kim Smith writes: https://kimsmithdesigns.com/–

Dear Friends,
I am delighted (and very surprised) to share that Beauty on the Wing has won Best Documentary at the San Diego International Children’s Film Festival. I write surprised as there were many beautiful films from around the world participating in the festival, and also because I wasn’t even aware we had been nominated for the award. My sincerest thanks and gratitude to SDIKFF!
Yesterday there were a number of Monarchs out on Eastern Point nectaring at wildflowers and in my garden. It was magical that we learned of the award on the same day as seeing these stragglers. We were celebrating Dia de Muertos here on Plum Street, and on this very same day, November 2nd, Monarchs were spotted arriving at Cerro Pelon and El Rosario Monarch Butterfly sanctuaries. Joel Moreno and his family at Cerro Pelon JM Butterfly BandB spotted the Monarchs traveling high in the sky in the upper thermals while my friend David Hernandez reports that at El Rosario, they are flying low on the mountain.

I promise not to wear my fur lined Crocs outside of the house

Posted on by Joey Ciaramitaro

After hearing from a bunch of people I know about how comfortable and cozy warm they are, I decided to take the leap.

Am I proud?

No. Sometimes we just gotta look at winter in New England and say “Fuck it. I’m going for comfort.”

Here’s me promise to you: You will not see me outside of the house wearing them and if you do, you have my full permission to take photos and publicly humiliate me in them.

Initial reports are that they are indeed warm and cozy and offer a comfortable arch support.

Here’s the unboxing video (even though it’s really just taking them out of a plastic bag).

They fit true to size so I’m a 12 mens and they were perfect.

Here’s a link to purchase- https://amzn.to/3DGR3Ev

The white ones may or may not be worn by my beautiful wife Kate😀

Posted on by Joey Ciaramitaro

Hello Joey and Good Morning Gloucester friends!

I am a long-time reader and fan of GMG and love it because I find out about cool things to do, see, and eat in Cape Ann. (I also love all the great photos you post of sunsets and beautiful scenery).  It was through GMG that I learned about artist Loren Doucette, and I wanted to share the recent interview I posted on my site Palate & Palette with Loren:  https://open.substack.com/pub/palateandpalette/p/loren-doucette-painter?r=cioli&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web

I hope you will check it out, and also consider sharing it! 

Thanks for all you do!

Kind regards,

Amy

Gloucester Firefighter Paramedics Help Deliver Healthy Baby in Ambulance on Route 128

Posted on by Joey Ciaramitaro
Chief Eric Smith is pleased to announce that Gloucester Fire Department Firefighter Paramedics helped deliver a healthy baby in an ambulance on Route 128 Thursday morning.
On Thursday, Nov. 3, at approximately 8:15 a.m., the Gloucester Fire Department responded to a report of a woman in labor at a home on Veterans Way.
While transporting the mother to the hospital, labor reached advanced stages, and Firefighter Paramedics Lukas McRobb and George Black determined they needed to stop the ambulance to deliver the baby.
A 19-inch, 6-pound and 15-ounce healthy baby boy was delivered along Route 128 about a mile from Beverly Hospital. Following the delivery, the family was transported to the hospital, where they are reportedly in good health.
“Our firefighter paramedics are dedicated, highly-trained first responders with advanced medical skills that are vital in exactly these kinds of situations,” said Chief Smith. “A majority of the calls the Gloucester Fire Department responds to are medical in nature, and Firefighter Paramedics McRobb and Black are a credit to themselves and their entire department. All of us at the Gloucester Fire Department wish this family a healthy and happy future.”
