Rick and I kayaking during the Schooner Festival went right by the HMS Bounty how we should remember her.  Here is a picture of her going down yesterday.  Very sad.

Rick and I walked to Rafe’s Chasm an hour ago and took this video.  Very windy and be safe, the rocks are really slippery.

On Friday took Avery and Cole to the beach.  Cole, my 3 year old grandson, stated, “that is way too much fun for me”  He then told me he wants to do the greasy pole.  I love kids.

Pirate Boat in Rockport

Posted on by Donna Ardizzoni

This looks like a fun outing for the grandchildren next summer.

Come sail on Tall Ship Formidable with the “Pirates of Fun” for an exciting yet relaxing experience upon the beautiful waters off Historic Cape Ann and Scenic Rockport Harbor.  Sail aboard Northeast’s only traditional square-rigged tall ship.  History becomes alive and fun as the Pirate King (captain) gives commands to the crew to hoist the square sails and brace the yardarms all awhile telling stories as waves are gently lapping against the hull. Sailing along the same waters used for centuries by great sailing ships of an era gone by – Patriots, Privateers and Pirates – Oh My! Your sailing experience will include crew dressed as pirates climbing the rigging and setting sail, telling stories about pirates, patriots and privateers along with the history of the harbor and entertaining our guest as much as they would like to be. It’s the most fun, exciting and best way to enjoy time on the water!  Tall Ship Formidable has been an icon on the waters of New England for over seven years, call today and reserve your cruise!
