Much Like Everything Else- Cape Ann Once Again Outshines The Inferior Cape (Cape Cod)

This is how they do lobster logos down on Cape Cod-

 

Now call me crazy but I’m going to go out on a limb and say that any kid on Cape Ann (the far superior Cape in every way) could do better.

So here’s how we’re gonna prove it.

Any kid under 16 years old that wants to create a lobster sign logo that has the two phrases- “Captain Joe and Sons” and “Cape Ann” on it instead of the sign from Cape Cod  that says “Barlow’s” and “Clam Shack”

will be entered onto a vote on GMG.  The sign that gets the most votes I’ll give a $20 gift certificate for Surfari.

I believe 100% that our youth will lay an absolute smackdown on the inferior Cape’s rendition of a lobster sign.

Submit your kid’s lobster logo at goodmorninggloucester @ yahoo.com

Looks Like Lobster Cove Got The Worst Of Last Night’s Microburst With Lots of Boats Capsized and Sunk

Hot Temps in a Hot Market

I hope everyone is enjoying their summer.  I wish I had more time myself, but mortgage rates are low and houses are moving fast.  Therefore my vacations will be limited to long weekends and later afternoon beach trips.

So how do the numbers look and why are things so busy?

According to both the Warren Group and National Associations of Realtors, the median Massachusetts price for a single family home climbed 2.1% in June 2019 for a median price of $429,000.00.  The surprising number is condo prices rose over 9% to a $420,000 median price.  That means that a once affordable condo, now costs on average the same price of a single family home.  The other misleading number is the median price as this takes into account all of Massachusetts.  Not until recently, the housing market west of 495 was slow compared to the eastern mass belts within 495 and…
