Hell has frozen over

Posted on by Donna Ardizzoni

HELL, Mich. (WILX) – You know the old saying, “It’s a cold day in Hell.” Well, it’s been more like a cold week in Hell… Hell, Michigan that is.

Businesses in the small town about 15 miles northwest of Ann Arbor are closed down for the next couple of days.

It’s so cold there that people are using snowmobiles to get to an emergency warming center at the local saloon.

The people living there, however, love all the cliches about their small town.

Sunday afternoon at Wingaersheek Beach

My daughter Ericka and her cute dog Freddy came up on Sunday afternoon.  We went to Wingaersheek Beach.  It was really pretty and lots of people walking around.  Love the golden retrievers taking a swim.

From Ainsley:

The One Hour at a TIme Gang will be doing St. Peters Square.

Stay warm

Hi everyone,

 I know the weather feels like spring is light years away, but April will be here before we know it! You’re on this list because you’ve either hosted or expressed interest in hosting a clean up site for the Great Gloucester Clean Up. Last year’s sites were:

St. Peter’s Square

Washington Street/Train Station

Rocky Neck

Cripple Cove/State Fish Pier

Good Harbor Beach

Pavilion Beach

 It would be great to add a site in Annisquam or Lanesville to engage new neighborhoods this year. Due to Easter falling on the weekend of April 20th, I’d suggest we move the clean up activities to Saturday April 27th, and hope for a slightly warmer day.

Please let me know if you’d like to host a clean up this year, and where. If you know of other groups that may be interested in hosting a site or bringing a group, please pass this along or let me know. Additionally, if you know of restaurants that may be interested in donating breakfast or lunch snacks, please share that as well! One Ocean has generously offered to host a barbecue again, but we’ve got quite the crowd these days.

 Looking forward to working with all of you on warmer days!

 Ainsley

Chair, Gloucester Clean City Commission

 

 

Kayaks in the rain

Went to Magnolia Landing in the rain yesterday and took this photo from inside my truck.  The kayaks looked interesting.

Cardinals in the winter

During a stormy Sunday, saw many birds eating from the feeder I have on our deck.  The Cardinal was so pretty.

I think I should have moved the beer and seltzer water off the porch

Posted on by Donna Ardizzoni

On Saturday, thought should move the seltzer water and beer from the enclosed porch to the garage.  well, forgot about it until Sunday morning.  I heard this weird noise and looked out on the porch.  This is what I found.  ICKY..
