These owls are so beautiful. Many people taking photos of these magnificent owls. It was nice to see how respectful humans are to these owls.

Lots of fun at the State Pier

Good Harbor and Magnolia on Thursday

Posted on by Donna Ardizzoni

On Thursday with the sun and less wind, Good Harbor had lots of surfers, Stand Up Paddle boarders and walkers taking advantage of the sunshine.  The below paddle boarder was actually in Magnolia Harbor.

So quiet last evening with the sun going down, by the way it was almost 5:00, know that the summer is coming and the excitement of the first time jumpers off the pier will be here soon.

Took two photos of sunset near the Magnolia Pier.

One photo very dark with interesting clouds and from the other side you can see the sun peeking through.

Swans and ducks

Posted on by Donna Ardizzoni

While going around Niles Pond the other day, saw Niles Pond’s beautiful Swan and a couple of ducks of course.  The two ducks look like they are discussing their Ducklings.

Cannot help myself

My obsession with winter sunsets continues.  All I have to do, is look out my office window and see the sky change, must have to grab the camera and go.

 

Martin Luther King Volunteering at Market Basket, Saturday January 13, 2018

Posted on by Donna Ardizzoni

We will be meeting at Market Basket starting at 9:00 a.m. and collecting until 3:00 p.m.  The 3:30 p.m. shift will meet at The Open Door, 28 Emerson Avenue, Gloucester to unload the truck.  We will be handing out flyers to Market Basket patrons asking if they could spare a donation. I have assigned a shift captain to each time slot.  They will be assigning tasks to volunteers, providing volunteers with flyers and buttons that identify us as democrats, I will also ask that they take a picture of their group and email it to me for Facebook and possible submission to our local newspapers.  If you don’t want to be in the picture that’s fine.

Please dress for the weather, it looks to be 47 degrees (but falling fast) and raining.  Please try to be on time for your shift as you are replacing someone else.  Most importantly remember to have fun!  We are fortunate to live in a great community of very generous people making this project a pleasure.  Attached is the schedule  please look for your name under a specified time slot and you will see the name of your shift captain.  For those of you not on the schedule, you expressed an interest and I welcome you to join where you can.  One last thing, at the end of this signature you will find my phone number, please take that number down and put it in your phone in case there is an issue.
